How Policies Are Applied In The SoftGrid Environment
Wednesday, 29 August 2007 by Michel Roth
Sometimes all that virtualization can get to you and make you loose the overview of how things work. One for example could struggle with the question on how group policies are applied to Softgrid applications.

The Softgrid Team blog has the short version of the answer: "Policies applied via a Group Policy Object (GPO) are not applied to the Virtual Environment; meaning, policies set through Windows Settings in the Group Policy Editor are not applied to the Virtual Environment.

Policies applied via an Administrative Template-based policy settings .ADM and .POL file are applied to the Virtual Environment; meaning, policies set through Administrative Templates in the Group Policy Editor are applied to the Virtual Environment."
