Re: Group policy issue

We would all like to be able to update our users from WSUS, but
unfortunately they are people, not computers. You have to use old-fashioned
methods like seminars, handouts and even talking to them to get the message
through.

How to determine which type of updates are applied to user or machines ?

Exctly what he said. Some group policies apply to machines and some
apply to users. Software update policies apply to machines, so they will
not be applied to users!

well in your case if the WSUS and the Exchange policy are applied to
the
domain, yes are applied.
The WSUS policy - if i assume correct from the name are settings for
windows
update - are settings are for computer so will never be appiled to
users so
you will see on unapplied GPO list, but is applied on computers and you
see
it on applied GPO list on computer section on gpresult, the same with
Exchange policy wich i assume are settings for users not for computers.

Does this mean that the GPO is applied and is this correct ? I link
the GPO
to the root domain.

hi,
it seems you have linked a GPO with computers settings on a OU where
the
users are and not that computer. thats why it listed on GPO list and
isnt
applied.

hello,

by default, gpo are applied (again) every 90 minutes.
You may use gpresult from different point to ensure this.
You may also search for GPO error on workstation when applying
GPO

Common GPO errors are covered here:
Applying Group Policy causes Userenv errors and events to occur
on your
computers that are running Windows Server 2003, Windows XP, or
Windows
2000

If you think GPO are not applied, you can turn on debug mode:
