Hi!

I've created a GPO for all our DCs which specifies the event log size to 16
MB. I linked the GPO and specified the order so that it should work.
When I ran Group Policy Results (part of gpmc.msc) it shows me that
everything should work properly and that the winning gpo ist the one in which
the settings are specified.

But it doesn't work! Some DCs have log files over 50 MB. And if I check the
settings in the Event Logs I see that the size is specified to 130 MB or
other values I never specified.

I don't have use the default domain controllers gpo because I want to let
the default policies as they are.

Any ideas?

Thanks in advanced

Juan
