        <description><![CDATA[Hi All,Great topic!Do you have any tip on how to backup the connections to the OU's? The scenario is to simulate a complete server crash.First I restore the AD, then restore the GP objects and if possible restore the connections to an OU in the Group policy manager.Is this possible you think?Best,Jon]]></description>

        <description><![CDATA[I don't think there is a Server 2010, at least not one by MS.  I'd recommend upgrading your domain rather than installing new and importing if you are going from 2003 to 2008R2.  Personally I haven't seen any issues going this route.]]></description>

        <description><![CDATA[We have a regular backup policy for our GPO's (since we use them for &quot;everything&quot; domain), but have found a bit of a problem when we copied our 2003 GPO's into our newly migrated 2010 Domain.  It appears as some of them don't work the way they did in 2003.  Is there a specific reason for that?  Are they not compatible?  We also found that our WSUS policies don't seem to be working in the 2010 domain as well (at least not as efficiently as they used to)]]></description>
