98-365 Exam - Question 29


You need to apply a Windows Server 2008 group policy. You also need to prevent policies that are applied at lower levels from affecting this new policy.

What should you do?

Show Answer
Correct Answer: C

To prevent policies that are applied at lower levels from affecting a new Windows Server 2008 Group Policy, you need to select the Enforced policy link setting. This setting ensures that the policy is applied regardless of any other policies that might conflict with it at lower levels, making the enforced policy take precedence.

Loopback processing forces the computer policy to trump the user policy so that a computer, say a kiosk machine, has its specific policies applied, regardless of which user logs into it. Setting a policy to Enabled well...enables it. Nothing special (let alone pertinent to the question) here. Setting the permissions to Full Control enables anyone to edit the Group Policy Object (GPO), but has nothing to do with where or how it is applied. Setting the GPO to Enforced means that the policy settings MUST take effect, regardless of whatever other policies exist for a given user or Organizational Unit (OU). So, if I have an Enforced GPO on "Staff", but other sub-OUs with other GPOs for "Marketing Staff" and "Finance Staff", if there are conflicting settings, the Enforced GPO on Staff wins out. On the surface, this might fool you into thinking that this is the right answer here, but the trick is that the question is referring to computer settings. Hope that clears your confusions.

I have an issue with this answer, as I have seen other tests state to us the loopback. What is the correct value here?

I agree with Dezelthegray clarification is needed
