First of all, it won't be applied to any NT clients. You would have to manage them with NT Policies. GPO's only work on 2000 and above. Second, what is your Active Directory Structure like? Is there only 1 Group Policy for the entire domain? Or could there be conflicting GPO's? If there are multiple GPO's, the last one applied always wins. You can also take a look at running gpresult on any of the computers in question. It is available in the Windows 2000 Resource kit, and will show you the result of all GPO's being applied on the computer and user logged in.

It worked for Windows XP clients but for Windows 2000 and NT clients, the image specified in the policy doesn't actually appear on their desktops. The image is specified as the one selected under the Display properties in the Control Panel though. The image is stored in a public folder on a domain controller where everyone has read access. Any suggestions why this is occuring?
