With Microsoft Windows 2000, 2003, and XP using Active Directory you can effectively assign "Group Policies" to users through applying them to parts of the Active Directory tree and then restricting them to certain users or groups of users.  These allow you to control almost every aspect of the user's computer, what they are allowed to change, and what is blocked giving a secure and easy to manage network of Windows computers.


Features

Where DCC can help

Group Policy can typically be used to determine what a user can do at his workstation by restricting, disabling, or enabling Windows and application features as needed from a central location, e.g. you can:

  • Restrict programs that are allowed to be run
  • Force a particular program to run on startup
  • Restrict desktop settings such as screen saver, resolution etc.
  • Configure Windows settings such as Offline Folders
  • Redirect My Documents, desktop etc. to network drives
  • Configure Language settings for multi-language applications
  • Run Login Scripts to map drives, reconfigure clients etc. 
  • Automate installation and removal of applications on any PC used -- roaming access to data and applications for users.
  • Allocate rights to registry and files on local PC's

 

  • Active Directory / Windows 2000 experience since pre-release Beta versions (1999) and experience of Novell NDS since 1995.
  • Configure Group Policy to your requirements
  • Lock down desktop PC's so that users are restricted if needed
  • Configure Windows 2000 and applications to work in different languages depending upon the user logging in.
  • Design complicated Login Scripts
  • Package or Re-package applications as Windows Installer "MSI" files for automated install
  • Keep track of users to audit them as they login and logout of each PC
  • Enable full roaming so that applications and data follow a user to any PC in the organisation.
  • Automate moving users from an old system to Windows 2000 using scripts etc.
