Additional Information
The vgptool command-line utility provides the same functionality as winlogon.exe. vgptool collects policy information based on the location of the Unix client host object in Active Directory.Once it collects the policy information, vgptool follows the same rules and standards of Group Policy application as Microsoft Group Policy, including enforced links, block inheritance,non-tattooing of policy settings, enabled/disabled links, link order, ACL filtering, and enabled/ disabled GPOs
Here are some group policy commands that can be done on the unix or mac machines:1 - To pull down the policies for the machine from AD:/opt/quest/bin/vgptool apply2 - To see what policies are applied to this machine/opt/quest/bin/vgptool rsop
