Table 8. Group Policy Protection wizard
Create or modify a Group Policy Protection Template page: On the first page of the wizard, enter a name for the template and select the Group Policy objects to be protected.

Template Name

Enter a descriptive name for the template.

Browse page

Displays a hierarchical view of the containers in your environment allowing you to locate and select the group policy container to be protected.

Once you have selected a container, click Add to add it to the list.

If required, use the Forest drop-down box to select in which forest the objects reside. Foreign agent forests may require foreign forests credentials which can be entered on the Credentials Required dialog.

 

Search page

The Search page initially contains GroupPolicyContainer in the Find field and an * wildcard character in the Name field. Click Search to locate the Group Policy containers in your environment.

You can use the controls at the top of the page to search your environment for a group policy container to protect.

•
In the Find field, either enter or use the drop-down menu to select the type of object to locate. You can enter multiple classes, separated by either a comma or semicolon. When you type in an entry, either click the Enter key or use Search to display the objects.
•
In the Name field, specify a search expression to use to locate a particular object. Usually, this field contains an asterisk (*) indicating to search for all objects of the type specified in the Find field.
•
Select the ANR check box to use Ambiguous Name Resolution (ANR) as the search algorithm, which allows you to enter limited input (partial data) to find multiple objects in your network.
When the ANR check box is checked, use one of the following methods to enter your search expression:
•
Enter a partial string to return exact matches or a list of possible matches. For example, entering ‘Admin’ will return objects that contain the names ‘Admin’, ‘Admins’, ‘Administrator’, Administrators’.
•
Enter a string preceded by the equal sign (=Admins) to return only exact matches. For example, entering ‘=Admin’ returns only those objects containing the name ‘Admin’.
By default, ANR searches the following attribute fields in Active Directory:
•
First Name (GivenName)
•
Last Name (Surname)
•
Display Name (displayName)
•
LegacyExchangeDN
•
msExchMailNickname
•
Relative Discontinued Name of the object (RDN)
•
Office (physicalDeliveryOfficeName)
•
Email address (proxyAddress)
•
Security Account Manager account (sAMAccountName)
When the ANR check box is not checked, the search expression entered will be used to search only the Display Name of directory objects to locate a particular object.
To use this search mechanism, enter a string of characters and the wildcard (*) character as described below.
•
n* returns objects that start with the letter ‘n’
•
*n returns objects that end in the letter ‘n’
•
*n* returns objects that contain the letter ‘n’ within their Display Name.

Once you have selected a container, click Add to add it to the list at the bottom of the page.
