Manually apply Group Policy

If you are using One Identity Authentication Services 4.1 (or later), Certificate Autoenrollment is configured automatically by Group Policy. Use the vgptool command line utility to manually apply Group Policy.

To manually apply Group Policy

  1. Decide whether you want to apply machine policy or user policy.

    NOTE: Machine policy affects the entire system; User policy only affects the specified user.

  2. To apply machine policy, enter the following command as root (or using sudo):

    /opt/quest/bin/vgptool apply

    The terminal displays policy processing results.

  3. To apply user policy, enter the following command as root (or using sudo):

    /opt/quest/bin/vgptool apply -u <username>

    The terminal displays policy processing results.
