Group Policy
I have a group policy that disables "Enable native XMLHTTP support" for all the servers in one OU, I am adding a 2008 R2 Ent x64 server to that OU, but this server needs it enabled.

This server needs to be in this OU, any solution?

only if that the XML is the the only setting on the GPO ;)

Agreed, creating a sub-OU enables you to override the setting.

If you reallyreallyreally can't move the computer object to another OU, I would wonder what created that dependency. The only thing I can think of is that some automation/scripts is dependent on the LDAP path of the server. Nasty.

If you really must use this OU, you can also create a higher ranking GPO for that OU, and configure GPO security such that only the x64 server has the "Apply policy" permission. The higher ranking setting will win, but only for that server.

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).
