Re: Group Policy Problem

Tried that already. The account that the server logs in with is
'Administrator'. It should be able to do anything. I found the
registry key that allows me to see the screen saver tab but the options
are greyed out and cannot be changed.

I tried logging in as myself and the group policy applied as I
expected. gpresults also showed the correct policies.

When I logged off and then back on as administrator, I still couldn't
change the screen saver settings. The administrator account is in an
OU with no policies appied.
