When you create a GPO in Active Directory, Windows 2000 places the policy in the SYSVOL at %SystemRoot%\SYSVOL\sysvol\<FQDN>\Policies\\{GUID\}, where <FQDN> is the Fully Qualified Domain Name, like JSIINC.COM, and \{GUID\} is a Globally Unique IDentifier. To determine the \{GUID\}, use any of the following 3 methods:
1. Run GPOTOOL.EXE /Verbose.
2. Use a MMC snap-in, like Active Directory Users and Computer, to right-click a container that has the GPO applied. Select the GPO and press Properties.
3. Use the MMC to add the Group Policy snap-in, add the GPO, right-click it, and press Properties.
To copy a GPO to another domain:
1. Create a new GPO in the target domain.
2. Determine the \{GUID\} of the new GPO.
3. Delete the contents of the \\Target_Domain_Server\Admin$\SYSVOL\sysvol\<FQDN>\Policies\\{New_GPO_GUID\} folder.
4. Determine the \{GUID\} of the GPO you wish to copy.
5. Copy the contents of the %SystemRoot%\SYSVOL\sysvol\<FQDN>\Policies\\{GUID\} folder to the \\Target_Domain_Server\Admin$\SYSVOL\sysvol\<FQDN>\Policies\\{New_GPO_GUID\} folder.
