    Hi Again..

    Disregard my e-mail below.. I forget to change the DNS settings on the
    machine to point to the DC.. DOH!

    So this is part of what I got when I ran GPRESULT /V ...

    USER SETTINGS
    --------------
        CN=Richard Morey,CN=Users,DC=dunemanagement,DC=internal
        Last time Group Policy was applied: N/A
        Group Policy was applied from: N/A
        Group Policy slow link threshold: 500 kbps

        Applied Group Policy Objects
        -----------------------------
            Default Domain Policy
    >>> Local Group Policy

        The user is a part of the following security groups:
        ----------------------------------------------------
            Domain Users
            Everyone
            BUILTIN\Users
            NT AUTHORITY\INTERACTIVE
            NT AUTHORITY\Authenticated Users
            LOCAL
            DMCIPowerUser

        Resultant Set Of Policies for User:
        ------------------------------------

            Software Installations
            ----------------------
                N/A

            Public Key Policies
            -------------------
                N/A

            Administrative Templates
            ------------------------
    >>> GPO: Local Group Policy
                    Setting:
    Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Policies\Explorer
                    State: Enabled

    >>> GPO: Local Group Policy
                    Setting:
    Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Policies\Explorer
                    State: Enabled

    Is the "Local Group Policy" referenced above set on the XP machine or on the
    Windows 2000 Server?

    Thanks

    Rich
