Hi Ellyot,

 

You are right, the easy way to add Group Policies to different machines is by connecting them to the Domain.  However, I am sorry to inform that with Windows 7 Home Premium does not have the feature to join a domain network.

To join the domain, you need to install Windows 7 Professional or upgrade to Windows 7 Ultimate.

 
Refer to the link to know more about the editions and features in Windows 7:
