Working on W2K server. Right now the DDP and DDCP are set to the default settings. Set up a test OU and a test GPO. Linked the GPO to the OU and refreshed the user and machine policy with secedit. The test GPO does not get applied. Only the DDP is showing up as applied. Went through a file from Microsoft on how to debug Group Policy issues and set up a bunch of extended logging but nothing seems to be failing to as to indicate why the test GPO I set up is not be applied. What is the best way to drill down into this problem? Since the DDP is applied there must be some kind of failure. How can I find out more about what is going on?

In addition to Toni's help, I'd like you to post your "extended logging" output to see if we can find you're problem there.

As you wrote you put user accounts into the OU you linked the policy to - did you define User Configuration options? If you still have no clue, try to go through the steps I posted here:
