Event Log losing settings



Environment:
Windows 2003 Small Business Server (DC)
Windows 2003 Server Std with Citrix Metaframe XPs FR3 SP4
Clients - Win XP SP2

I have an annoying little problem with the security event log on the
clients. In the group policy for the bulk of the users in the OU
"Users ? Shell" I have set the security log size to 9984kb and to
overwrite events as necessary, but these settings are not working on
the clients. Many users get locked out from the PC as the security log
fills up and requires an admin to log in and clear it (users are not
local admins). I have checked through all other GPOs to make sure
there aren't any conflicts. I have also tried setting the same
settings on the client. It all appears OK ? I change the settings, go
out of the properties window, go back and check it has retained the
settings and everything is fine. Then I can go back a couple of days
later and it has reset to clear events manually.

Can anyone shed some light on why this GPO isn't working as expected?
Any ideas will be greatly appreicated as this is driving my users
nuts!

Thanks

Michelle
