NetIQ Group Policy Administrator 4.x

fact
NetIQ Group Policy Administrator 5.0

fix
The Repository in Group Policy Administrator (GPA) encapsulates GPedit and therefore has the same behavior as GPedit.  The ADM templates used when creating a new GPO in the Repository are the come from the client computer that hosts the console that creates the GPO.  As a result, the template may have only the settings specified for type of computer that hosts the console.
