Yes, the policy does not show as being effected, even
after a restart.
There are NO GPOS showing on the Active Directory Users
and Computers MMC. I am starting to think the guy who set
this up did not set it up completely or, perhaps, deleted
some of the tools.
One suggestion was to reinstall the adminpack which I
will try tomorrow.
I'm still working on this, if you have any other
suggestions.
Thanks,
Steve
