The following are common reasons why GPO settings may fail to apply to a
user or computer (10-point check):
1) Machine or user must be a domain member and authenticate with the domain
2) DNS client configuration problem. Is the client's preferred DNS server
setting pointing to a DNS server that handles the zone for AD domain
3) User or machine is not in the container to which the GPO is linked. Run
rsop.msc or gpresult.exe /v on the users workstation to check that the
policy is actually being applied or not.
4) User or machine is under a hierarchy which is blocking the GPO
5) There is group filtering which is preventing the user or machine from
reading the GPO
6) The user is a member of a group which is being filtered from the effect
of Group Policy. For example, the 'Authenticated Users' has "Deny" selected
for 'Appy Group Policy'.
7) If the machine is running a host-based firewall and blocking all ICMP
traffic then group policies will not apply. (Clients test the link speed by
sending an IMCP packet of 2048 bytes).
8) Check to see if the user is a member of too many groups. At the very
least, configure the client firewall to allow inbound ICMP traffic from the
domain controllers.
Quoted from:
Kerberos authentication may not work if user is a member of many groups:
http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;en-us;280830
If a user is a member of many groups either directly or because of group
nesting, Kerberos authentication may not work. The Group Policy object (GPO)
may not be applied to the user and the user may not be validated to use
network resources.
9) Are there any errors in the event log concerning seccli or userenv? If
so examine these errors closely.
10)Review the error messages in the %windir%\debug\usermode\userenv.log
file?
