Re: Why Win 2003 group policy can not apply to client

Hi!

Is it possible that your administrator account is not in OU to which your
GPO is linked? GPO applies only to users (user configuration part) or
computers (computer configuration part) in OU with GPO linked.

I'm wondering one thing for Windows 2003 server. For instance, I have
configured one group policy for hide all the desktop item for users in an
OU.
If I run gpresult in server with administrator account. The policy what I
have configured not shown in "Applied Group Policy Objects". However if I
logon the server with that OU user account and run gpupdate. The policy
what
I have configured will show in "Applied Group Policy Objects". So I would
like to know, the group policy what I have configured can be apply to user
or
not? Do you think this is a proper setting?

There are policy settings added with each Windows release, and newer
ones are ignored by earlier versions of Windows. So, it depends on what
you are applying and how. If you are settings Windows 2003 vintage
settings, then these will not have any effect when it is a Windows XP
machine. You need to be more precise if you wish a precise response.

Hi!

I'm using Win 2003 Server. I have configured some group policy in
certain
OU. However when user in that OU log in to Win 2003 domain. The group
policy
that what I configured in the OU can not applied to workstation.
However
when
I try to login the account use server itself, the group policy can
applied
to
server itself. So I do not what's wrong for the group configuration for
this
case. So any one got the idea?

Regards
