Windows Server 2008: update software through group policy

[spidfire]

If you make a gpo where you install a programm with the uninstall feature, what happens when you change to an other user that doesnt have the gpo?

[technoblogical]

@spidfire From what I've seen, the program remains. I wish I could tell you that it is inaccessible, but that has not been my experience.

Do you use any securety software on your server? like norton or something or do you have a eksterne securety system?

[technoblogical]

@Thetrutv No, these aren't real servers. They are just virtual machines on my desktop. I can't really recommend a good software for the server. At work, our solution for such things has always been "Stay the heck off the server."

[cocomojo]

Nice, thanks. Only question I have is why you would want to assign to user vs. computer?

[technoblogical]

If their computer ever gets replaced, the software follows them.

[basmagic]

which security software is on your server?

[technoblogical]

None. Just the Windows defaults. (Defender and the Windows Firewall?) This just a Demo server anyway.
