Question : IE Home page and Group Policies. Windows server 2008R2

Hi, I have a default policy that sets the home page for all users in the domain, company policy.
I am now asked to exclude a very small group of staff, Directors of course ;).
Is there an easy way to do this without moving them to a new OU?
I tried to create a new policy just for that group but there is no way, I can see, of excluding those settings that you set in the default polict under USER CONFIG->POLICIES->WINDOW SETTINGS->IEM->URL's->Home Page

Maybe you know better?

Answer : IE Home page and Group Policies. Windows server 2008R2

In 2008 server you have the new group policy options to play with.  Look under - User config -Preferences - Control Panel Settings - Internet Settings. RIght click new (choose ie version) then enter your homepage(s) in. Hit the last tab - common - tick item-level targeting and press the targeting button.

From here you can define what this policy applies to e.g.

New Item - security group - select domain users -ok

then to exclude individuals

New Item - user - select user account then hit - item options and change to 'is not'

Your xp and vista clients will need the group policy client side update installed
