Group Policy will only apply to domain users and those domain users must be
within the scope of influence of the Group Policy. In other words if you
configure a Group Policy for am OU with user configuration, then the user
accounts must exist in that OU or a child OU. You can use the gpresult tool
while logged on as one of those users or a test user with the same policy
applied to see what Group Policies are being applied to the user and
computer, from which domain controller and the last time the policy was
applied. Also make sure that the user configuration portion of the Group
Policy is enabled. --- Steve
