GPO Scope of Management
-
Something I can never grasp is who wins in the scope of management for the flow of Group Policy. So I think this is how it goes:
Local Policy first
Then the Site Policies get applied and win over local.
Then the Domain Policies get applied and win over site & local.
Then OU policies get applied and beat everyone.
Everyone think that sounds right? -

I remember it as starting at the top and cascading down in the containers / OU's.... I remember this because you have the option (right click) to block any 'upper' policy from being inherited.
Hope this helps. -
Perfect article John! Thanks, i like how you remember it too!
