Asked by Wiki User

Domain Group Policy is an infrastructure inside of the Microsoft Windows operating systems (Windows Server 2000, 2003, and 2008, along with Vista) that allows the administrator to implement specific configurations for both computers and users. This infrastructure is what provides the centralized management and configuration for an Active Directory environment. Group Policy provides directory-based desktop-configuration management. With Group Policy, you can specify policy settings for registry-based policies, security, software installations, scripts, folder redirection, Remote Installation Services (RIS), and Internet Explorer maintenance.

Admins use Group Policy to define specific configurations for groups of users and computers by creating Group Policy settings. These settings are specified by the Group Policy Object Editor tool and contained in a Group Policy object (GPO), which is in turn linked to Active Directory containers, such as sites, domains, or OUs. Domain Group Policy is the configuration of groups and users within a domain. In this way, Group Policy settings are applied to the users and computers in those Active Directory containers. Admins can configure the users

What is the value of keys from the USS Tacoma?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

I had a great uncle serve on the Tacoma. Out of curiosity what name is on the keys? My grandfather had a tattoo that said USS Tacoma. He was born in 1898. Name George Parks. This was probably the cruiser USS Tacoma (CL-20), guessing that he served in his early twenties

The Tacoma was a gunboat and existed in several forms. I decommissioned the USS Tacoma PG-92 in 1981. (Aggie80)

The keys are a nice memento, probably not of great value, more historical than anything else.
