Select Audited Computers

When a computer runs PPGPCR.Auditor.exe from a server's share, it sends Group Policy results data to it. However, you might not want to accept data from every computer, even if it is set to run PPGPCR.Auditor.exe. Therefore, by default all computers' Group Policy results are rejected unless they are explicitly in a group of your choosing. The quickest way to set up a group is to click "Choose..." and enter "Domain Computers," in the "Audited computers" section (see Figure 46), which will accept data from any computer that is licensed and runs PPGPCR.Auditor.exe.

An example of a more limiting group is shown in Figure 47 with a self-made Active Directory group. In this case, you can add the computers you want to the group, then name the group, as shown in Figure 47.
