From: Thomas Kroljic on 17 Jun 2010 18:44 All, Yesterday I added a new Windows 2008 R2 Terminal Server to our existing SBS 2003 R2 environment. My question is this: I want to "lock down" this new server, so do I create a Group Policy on the SBS box or on the new 2008 TS box? Thank you, Thomas
From: Meinolf Weber [MVP-DS] on 18 Jun 2010 02:03 Hello Thomas, To configure a GPO for Windows server 2008 R2 you should use a Windows 7 machine or the server, install GPMC and if needed RSAT tools on the Windows server 2008 R2 from "add features" Best regards Meinolf Weber Disclaimer: This posting is provided "AS IS" with no warranties, and confers no rights. ** Please do NOT email, only reply to Newsgroups ** HELP us help YOU!!! http://www.blakjak.demon.co.uk/mul_crss.htm > All, > Yesterday I added a new Windows 2008 R2 Terminal Server to our > existing > SBS 2003 R2 environment.

From: Thomas Kroljic on 18 Jun 2010 08:43 Meinolf, So even though we have a SBS 2003 as our Domain Server, I should still use the Windows 2008 R2 box to create a Group Policy for users who remotely connect to this terminal server box?

Hello Thomas, It doesn't matter where you configure the GPO, of course an admin machine with Windows 7 or another Windows server 2008 R2 machine can also be used.
