I have a Win2K AD network with 3 local DCs, and 1 remote
DC - over a T1 VPN RRAS connection. I have set the DC
auditing to audit failures for most of the settings. This
works for a while, and then the remote site just stops
logging security events. If I monkey around with policy
settings I can get it to start logging again. I also have
problems with the remote site - if I create a user they
will not be able to log on locally to a machine in the
remote site, the error message says local policy is
preventing the logon, but I do not have any local policies
defined. Any suggestions?
Thanks - Wayne

Have also made the changes via gpedit thinking that this would change the policy, but after the password change, not expired, it reverts back to the original settings, it definately relates to the password change, so it seems that every three months when that password chg GPO comes into play it also puts the original local settings back into play. ...
