You can copy system policies from the network either manually or automatically. If you want to copy system policies automatically, Windows 95 locates the system policy file (CONFIG.POL) in the proper directory on the network and downloads its policy settings into the Registry of the local computer when the user logs on. If you want to copy system policies manually, Windows 95 copies the system policy file from a location you specify. Automatic downloading works only if the filename for the system policy file is CONFIG.POL.
Note
Windows 95 supports automatic downloading for Windows NT and NetWare networks. The 32-bit, protected-mode network clients subsequently made available for other networks might also provide support for automatic downloading.
