Re: Group polices not getting implemented on XP professional

Tech Tip: Click here to run a free scan for Windows Errors and optimize PC performance



Hi,

This setting should be found on the XP machine under the local policy.
If you have a W2K domain follow the link below to upgrade your policies
as this is new setting.

Upgrading Windows 2000 Group Policy for Windows XP
http://support.microsoft.com/?kbid=307900


Some other recommendations in regards to this (from newsgroup posts) is
to verify that:
- DFS service on all DCs is started and set to "Automatic"
- there are no FRS issues - (if there are, toubleshoot those first)
- TCP/IP Netbios Helper service is started and set to "Automatic"
- the "Everyone" has the "bypass traverse checking" user right
on the default domain controller policy
- the antivirus (if installed) is not scanning the sysvol or
subfolders, if so, exclude it
- consider that the error description in event id 1058 ("network path
not found" or "access denied") is caused by different problems and have
different solutions.

Are the XP machines receiving any 1058 errors with the 1030 errors?
If so look at the following article

Group policies are not applied the way you expect; "Event ID 1058" and
"Event ID 1030" errors in the application log
