We have password
protected screensavers enabled in our default domain policy, and then at a lower
OU level, I have a GPO linked that is set to Screen Savers "Not
configured". Basically, we want all users to have password protected
screensavers except a select few
machines.
So, I created a
security group called "No Screensaver" and added computer accounts that we don't
want screensavers to be enforced on. Then I went into our default domain
policy, and added deny read and deny apply gpo to this No Screensaver
group. The GPO that IS applied only to the No Screensaver group has all
the screen saver settings set to "Not configured" and the Password Protect the
Screensaver GPO is "Disabled".
Once a GPO is applied
to a PC, do you have to "Disable" it to unapply it, or will setting it to "Not
configured" put it back to normal?
I added my computer to
this No Screensaver group, and still my screen saver settings and buttons are
greyed out and it will not let me change it.
Thanks
