It is disabled and no other policies have been created
that would over write this.
I am concerned that this might be a DNS issue. We use QIP
and we don't control that. It appears that when pinging
the domain name it isn't resolving to the DC's as it
should. So I think that may be why we are seeing these
issues. I'll post a result if that is what it is. Thanks.
