Thanks for this link. (BTW, what did you search for )
I had been looking for a way to do this for weeks. I even googled looking for it. This article at least tells me that I can not do exactly what I was wanting to do .
What I wanted to do was apply policies based on the domain group from a nondomain PDC netlogon share (the share could have been named whatever).
There is a way I could "emulate" it by looking at this article, but it would have a VERY HIGH upkeep cost (just like the first method I was looking at).
Just to throw a question in, Does AD policies have to be deployed from the netlogon share of the PDC? If so this is probably going to shoot my future plans in the foot too.
