That would almost sound like a DNS issue or that you're
not giving the computer enough time to refresh the
policy. If it's a 2k machine, run secedit /refreshpolicy
machine_policy or an XP machine run gpupdate. I'm not
sure on how often the computer policies refresh
automatically... is it just at start up?
