Server 2008 used as terminal server with Office 2007 installed. I've been asked to deploy a GPO to make the default font used Veranda 11 for all Office Suite applications.
I've been doing some research and the success with this seems hit or miss. I need to know if there is a way for me to easily force this for all user accounts on the terminal server. if I have to update HKCU for each user I will but will be a major hassle for all new users added.
User login script on that machine to make the registry change locally when they login? Or perhaps add it to the startup group for all users on that machine. It's not elegant, but "it has teeth". Should be able to script that change from the command line....
This shouldn't pose a big problem.
Stick your remote desktop session host in an OU and link a GPO to the OU.
Configure your GPO thusly:
Computer Configuration > Policies > Administrative Templates > System > Group Policy > User Group Policy loopback processing mode - Enabled
[This will enable you to link the GPO to a Computer but have it apply the User settings of the GPO, see here: http://blogs.technet.com/b/askds/archive/2013/02/08/circle-back-to-loopback.aspx You can also use a separate GPO to enable loopback policy processing on your RDSH, ie you don't have to specify it in each GPO linked to the computer]
User Configuration > Preferences > Windows Settings > Registry > New Registry Item > [configure as required] > Common: tick 'Apply once and do not re-apply'
That should work? The registry settings required will probably be under HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Office\XXX\Common\MailSettings
