GPO policy settings which trumps which?
Hey Experts,
Quick question regarding the GPO tree. If, for example, I have a OU tree with the following policies, which one beats out the other?
Domain.local
|
|_domain policy
|
|____Users (OU)
|
|__another domain policy
To further the example for clarification, if I set the idle time for a TS session under the "domain policy" to be 10 minutes, and then go to the "another domain policy" and I want that OU group to have a different idle time of 20 minutes, is it safe to say that the policy most closely linked to the OU will win out with the users in that group having 20 minutes? Or will the "domain policy" trump the "another domain policy"?
I'm assuming that the "another domain policy" is the last and final policy applied after the "domain policy". Am I correct?

the policies will work backwards, and apply the parent unless you disable that feature then you can ignore the parent policy
