Does anyone know a way howto merge multiple GPO's to one new GPO.
I want to merge multiple GPO's with some security, system and administrative
policies to one new GPO.
I also want to merge the multiple "regedit.pol" files that are now part of
individual GPO's into one new GPO.
The GPMC does not provide this function with import. The import overwrites
the whole GPO.
VB scripts are also welcome.

Thanx in advance

I am interested in the responses you will receive, but wish to mention
that Microsoft is recommending (or at least encouraging) many small
GPOs that can be mixed and matched granularly.

Having many smaller GPOs is not particular bad.

Hello lingenavd,

Never heard about this. You have to do it by hand i think. If you find a
way please post the result here.

Best regards
