Guys,
Does anyone have any suggestion for how I can monitor my GPO.
I would like to know who created it, when created, what changes were made to
existing policies, etc.
I'm using windows 2003 sp2

There's this read-to-use product called AGPM that does version control,
change tracking and versioning on GPOs. AGPM is included in Microsoft's
MDOP package (Desktop Optimization Pack). If you're an SA customer, you
already have that package.

Other than that, you'll have to enable auditing on the GPO on the
Policies container in AD and probably the SYSVOL container.

Cheers,
Florian

Thanks Florian,
However, I'm not a SA customer. Guess that means I have to look into the
auditing at the container and the sysvol.
Thanks again
