I tried what you said but the Policy is still not being
applied. I moved my station into the IT_OU and applied
the ITXP2Firewall again. I moved my station out of the
computers and put it in the IT_OU and forced a gpupdate on
both the server and my workstation. This still is not
working and I dont understand why. I changed th policy on
the ITXP2firewall to enforced but nothing. I set the
permisions to my machine only and also added my username
with the rights. Any help would be apprectiated is
appreciated. It seems like I cant get the GP under the
IT_OU to work no matter what I try.
