If you haven't yet utilized the updated GPMC's new "Comments" feature, it's pretty neat. The
idea is that you can specify a comment over a GPO about, say, who created it,
who supports it, and what it's supposed to be doing.
But something came up today in a class I was teaching and I thought was neat
I wanted to share with you.
Someone wanted to know how they could create a comment ONE TIME, then "recycle"
that comment to other GPOs.
So, imagine I had a comment in a GPO which says: "Mean Man Moskowitz made me make
this GPO." An then imagine that comment could be applicable to multiple GPOs.
But, how do you repro the comment over and over again?
Turns out: it's short and sweet. And no scripting or programming required.
The comment is inside the GPT (SYSVOL) portion of the GPO in a file called "GPO.CMT."
Just copy that file to the ANOTHER GPO's GPT (that's the portion that lives in SYSVOL)
and.. whamo !
You've copied the comment.
I don't know if this is "officially sanctioned" or not, but it seemed to work pretty well when I tested
it out! So, use at your own risk, I guess.
