Correct, if you have NEVER gone through the ~validate policy~ & ~activate policy~ you will see an active one listed as $$ACTIVE$$, just a reminder that you are running with something YOU haven't looked into.
Also if you import a policy from another server, and that policy had an ACTIVE policy set over on the other server, it will import and have an ACTIVE policy set BUT it will be listed at $$ACTIVE$$, once again, to let you know you don't really know for sure what is running because YOU haven't validated it and/or activated it. hope this helps... later, Dwight E.
