I am looking to redesign how our laptops work on and off our network, we have GPO's in place however i want the laptop to work alot better when in standlone (or not connected to the network).<br />
<br />
At the moment when users log in we have a GPO for the laptops that:<br />
<br />
- disblaes wireless service<br />
- enables RPC locator<br />
- Enables IE Proxy settings<br />
- Disables user of Add/Remove and installation of software<br />
<br />
When users are offsite or use their laptop at home i am wanting the above settings to be turned off or to not apply since the laptop isnt connected to the network, so basically is there a way that these settings can be turned off when the user logs in on their laptop at home???<br />

disable GPO when not connected to network

The Windows operating systems have distinct methodologies for designing and implementing networks, and have specific systems to accomplish various networking processes, such as Exchange for email, Sharepoint for shared files and programs, and IIS for delivery of web pages. Microsoft also produces server technologies for networked database use, security and virtualization.

Windows Server 2003 was based on Windows XP and was released in four editions: Web, Standard, Enterprise and Datacenter. It also had derivative versions for clusters, storage and Microsoft’s Small Business Server. Important upgrades included integrating Internet Information Services (IIS), improvements to Active Directory (AD) and Group Policy (GP), and the migration to Automated System Recovery (ASR).

Windows Server 2003

Microsoft Windows XP is the sixth release of the NT series of operating systems, and was the first to be marketed in a variety of editions: XP Home and XP Professional, designed for business and power users. The advanced features in XP Professional are generally disabled in Home Edition, but are there and can be activated. There were two 64-bit editions, an embedded edition and a tablet edition.
