This document explores the complexities of Group Policy Objects (GPOs) and user management across multiple campuses within an Active Directory (AD) environment. It addresses how GPOs are applied based on the Organizational Unit (OU) of users and computers, the implications of users roaming between campuses, and the interaction between different domains. Key topics include user settings for cross-campus logins, GPO filtering by campus groups, and the functionality of Exchange in a multi-domain setup. It serves as a guide for administrators to effectively manage policies and settings in a distributed environment.

Proposed SCCD AD Structures Providing for distributed management in the pre-enterprise interval
By-Campus OU Structure Users, Computers in per-campus OU’s. What GPO’s apply when user from one OU logs into computer from another campus?
Flat Structure Computer GPO’s are filtered by campus groups? User OU’s are filtered by campus groups? How do you set user settings for North user logging in at South?
Multi-Domain Models • If a user from a trusted domain(sscc) logs into a computer in a trusting domain(nscc), which gpo’s apply, if any? • How would a multi-domain model function with exchange? • Do all exchange users have to be in one domain, or can exchange pull in users from trusted domains?
Laptops Now the Computer is roaming, not just the user. South User, Using South Computer, at Central: How does Central impose user/computer policies? Should Central do so?
