RE: [ActiveDir] XP GPOs vs Win2k GPOs
Title: Message Here is MS solutions, they are now sure why this is happening but at least the solution works: If you are missing the GPO extensions under User Configuration/windows settings you need to register the following dll's for each extension that is missing. Open a command prompt and type the following: cd %systemroot%\system32 regsvr32 name of dll (without the 's) The dll's for each extension are listed below: Scripts (Logon/Logoff) --- %SystemRoot%\System32\gptext.dll Security Settings --- C:\WINDOWS\System32\wsecedit.dll Internet Explorer Maintenance -- %SystemRoot%\System32\ieaksie.dll Remote Installation Services -- %SystemRoot%\System32\RIGPSNAP.dll Folder Redirection Editor -- C:\WINDOWS\system32\fde.dll Greg Felzer -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] On Behalf Of Leney, Justin Sent: Wednesday, September 25, 2002 4:11 PM To: '[EMAIL PROTECTED]' Subject: RE: [ActiveDir] XP GPOs vs Win2k GPOs No doubt, RSoP is a nice tool.

We are in the middle of developing our revised XP GPO's.
