    It is *technically* true that any server in the corresponding OU should
    receive the group policy but I saw many many examples where some group
    policy settings are not successfully applied *for some reason* altough
    it should. It is certain that if everything is OK group policy is
    successfully applied to all servers but it may be interrupted by a
    plenty of technical reasons that we mostly meet in large enterprise
    systems.( replication problems, time synchronzation, DNS problems,
    connectivity etc.) As Laura says, " Any server that is **supposed** to
    receive a policy should receive the policy.". Unfortunately we can only
    **suppose** that all the servers will apply the policy in the time
    interval we expect in a large and distributed domain.

    No, it isn't. Any server that is supposed to receive a policy
    *should* receive the policy.
