    Default Loopback Processing Question

    Hi there

    I'm relativley new to Server 2008 and Group Policy, and I'm wondering about Loopback Processing. If I have a GPO linked to an OU of computers, that applies User settings and has Loopback Processing enabled, does that mean that ANY GPO linked to the same OU will apply Loopback Proccessing as well? Or will the Loopback only apply for the GPO that it is specified in?
    Thanks!

    Default

    It will apply to ALL policies link to that OU as well as anything the OU inherits from other OU's

    Default Right..

    Another way to think about it is.. The computer is doing loopback.. and processes all GPOs as if it were a user. So, it's not about a particular GPO or a setting.
