>> Hello Theo,
>>
>> Thank you for posting to the SBS Newsgroup.
>>
>> I understand that the Group Policy does not being applied to some of your
>> domain client workstation. If I have misunderstood your concern, please
>> let
>> me know.
>>
>> Due to lack of detail information, I need your help to gather following
>> information:
>>
>> [Note]: My reply is a bit long, so please take your time to collect the
>> following information. I am greatly appreciated your co-operation!
>>
>> 1. I need to know how you knew "some PCs are no longer picking up the SBS
>> group policy set".
>>
>> 2. Different Group Policy uses different apply method, so I need to know
>> what exact Group Policy are not being applied.
>>
>> 3. When did the issue occur? Did you install any updates or make any
>> changes on the server/client workstations recently?
>>
>> 4. I suggest that we disjoin this computer form the domain, create a new
>> computer object (by using the Configure Computer wizard) with DIFFERENT
>> name from the old one, and then use connectcomputer to join the
>> workstation
>> into the SBS domain again with the newly created computer object. Could
>> this issue be reproduced?
>>
>> 5. Do those problematic client workstations locate at the same OU
>> (Organizational Unit) as the good client workstations?
>>
>> 6. Do those Group Policy being applied to Domain, Site or OU?
>>
>> 7. Please help to gather following three log files to analysis:
>>
>> [Note]: Please send following log files to my mailbox:
>> v-branee@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx
>>
>> a. On the server, open a command window, run "gpresult /v >c:\gp.txt"
>> (without quotation marks), go to c drive, get the gp.txt file, and paste
>> the full content of the log to me.
>>
>> b. On one of the problematic client workstations, please collect
>> Userenv.log. Please refer to the simple steps in the following KB article
>> to enable Userenv.log.
>>
>> 221833 How to Enable User Environment Debug Logging in Retail Builds of
>> Windows
>> http://support.microsoft.com/?id=221833
>>
>> c. On the SBS 2K3 Server and one of the problematic client workstation,
>> run
>> "eventvwr" (without quotation marks), check whether there is any error.
If
>> yes, double click it, click the Copy button and paste the full content to
>> the Newsgroup.
>>
>> For your additional information:
>>
>> If you find Event IDs 1058 and 1030 on those problematic client
>> workstations, please see:
>>
>> 314494 Group policies are not applied the way you expect; "Event ID 1058"
>> and

>> If Event IDs 1058 and 1030 showed on the server, it is most likely a SMB
>> signing configuration compatibility issue. Please see:
