asked on Group Policy Change reporting
Hi,
I am looking for a way to monitor the Group Policy changes in the environment. I am presently not looking for any paid tool for the same because I have checked some of the tools from ManageEngine, Netpro, Netwrix but all the tools are very costly. I am looking for some free or low cost tool. Also If I can get a way to find the Group Policies created and modified in last one month that will help to some extent.
I have got a tool named GPMonitor in Resource Kit but I am not able to find as to how it works. Does it take the policy setting from desktops or from DC's.
Please suggest.

How big is your environment? Number of DC's/servers/Workstations?
Try auditing the changes.
Here is a basic article about it:
