Try deleting the secedit.sdb file and then reboot the system.  We have had
to do this in the past.  It is located in the C:\winnt\security\database
directory.

Subject: [ActiveDir] secedit enforce problems...


Hi all, am having a wierd problem which is starting to drive me crazy..

I cannot get GPOs to refresh on a client using the usual:

secedit /refreshpolicy xxx_policy /enforce

The enforce only works if I do either of the following:

1. Update the policy - so the version number increments.
2. Delete the history entries from HKCU/HKLM.

If I do either of these, the policy refreshes as expected (with or without
enforce) - otherwise nothing.

I am not getting eventlog messages relating to cannot access history - have
checked the permissions.

I have enabled ful userenv debugging and can see the policy engines
working - they just don't seem to take any notice of the enforce...

Can anyone shed any light - or has anyone else seen similar?

Thanks,

Ben
