OK, but which policies did you define?

  Hello, I'm new in configuring active directory and obviously, as expected,
  have a problem.
  From what I'd read the group policies apply to users and computers inside
a
  Domain, Site or OU.
  I have already installed a windows 2000 server with Active Directory and
it'
  s working fine but.
  In my "Active Directory Users and computers" snap-in, in the root of my
  domain name I'd define a new OU called "TestOU" and from the properties
tab
  linked a new GPO called "TestOU GPO" and configured it.
  After that I'd define a user ("User1") inside "TestOU" who by default is a
  member of "Domain Users" (Group predefined in the Users container).
  I logged in the domain as User1 (from a windows 2000 Pro) to verify that
the
  policies worked right but none of them were apply.
  I try defining the computer inside the OU but it didn't work either.
  I started changing the options like "No Override" and "Block Policy
  inheritance" and no result were found.
  Can somebody tell me what am I doing wrong?
  Thanks in advance.
              Gabriel
