Imported Security Settings

Imported security settings let administrators set only certain security settings without affecting all remaining security settings. Security settings can be imported from an Active Directory* Group policy or can be generated with the Security Configuration and Analysis snap-in in the Microsoft* Management Console (MMC).

When you import an Active Directory Group policy containing security settings or import a security settings file, the imported settings are saved in a new file called zensec.inf.

The security settings in zensec.inf will be used instead of the regular security settings displayed when editing the Group policy in MMC. The security settings shown in MMC will not be accurate and any changes made will not be applied. If imported security settings are detected while editing a Group policy, a message box will inform the user that the security settings in zensec.inf will be used in place of the regular security settings and give the user the option of displaying the settings in the zensec.inf file.
