Re: GPO not picking up computer settings

Hi Steve

I do not recall Jarryd mentioning how many DCs there are, so
could this be a gummed up replication issue ?

Double check the permissions for the default domain GPO. Look in it's
properties/security and you should see both read and apply for
authenticated
users and no groups by default should have any deny permissions. If for
some
reason that does not help try creating a new GPO and link it to the domain
container, move it to the top of the list, define the password/account
policy
settings to be what you want, run Gpupdate again, and then check the
results
with net accounts. Also make sure that block inheritance is NOT enabled on
the
domain controller container. --- Steve

Hi Steve and Roger,

I don't know what on earth is going on here. Now I am being told that
the
Default Domain Policy is being denied because of Security Filetering.
but I
haven't done anything to the security settings. I was going to but was
waiting for a reply on this forum before I started fiddling. This really
is
getting silly. I have run GPUpdate on both DCs. If I check the settings
of
the Default Domain Policy everything is set the way that it should be. I
haven't changed the permissions. So why is it still picking up these
stupid
settings. It doesn't make much sense.

Please help.

TIA,

Jarryd

Those users are domain accounts or machine local accounts ??

OK, I have managed to get the GP Management tool to pick up the
settings
and it says that it is applying them in the way that I want them to on
the machine and user against which I ran the test. I went in to the
Local Policy and it has picked up the settings. But when I try to
change
there password it lets me do it with less characters that required, it
is
not picking up the history of old passwords, and it isn't enforcing
complexity. I really don't understand this.

Please help!!

Hi,

I have created a Group Policy for remote users. The only settings I
have configured are the ones that pertain to passwords and account
lockout. I have moved those users to an OU that is linked to the new
GP, but the settings weren't taking affect. So I generated a report
and
it came back saying the policy was empty. But that's just wrong. If
I
go in and configure user settings those are picked up, but the
computer
settings aren't. Why?

TIA,

Jarryd
