group. The se

In the security filter of the GPO, check to make sure the READ and APPLY
GROUP POLICY are set to 'Allow' for your Universal group, otherwise the
Loopback won't apply. Also, make sure the computer itself is receiving the
policy by checking the secuirty filter to make sure the Computer Account is
in a group which also has READ and APPLY GROUP POLICY are set to 'Allow'.

Check your event log also for errors.
