Preferences are All the Rage!
The March issue of Redmond is out, and in this issue my Windows Insider column talks about Group Policy Preferences. This long-desired capability brings easy configuration control to clients and servers alike.
In short, GPP's give you the flexibility to modify virtually any client configuration like files, registry keys, drivers, ODBC connections, and others. But this time, there's no custom coding required. Prior to GPP's it was possible to create many of these custom configurations, but only with custom ADM files you code yourself.
Even better, with GPP's it is possible to set a configuration as "optional". This tells Group Policy to set the configuration, but not enforce it should the user later decide to change it.
