I cant find anything else different. I get the same results for "working"
and "non-working" users when I run gpresult. They are in the same OU, and
GPs are applied as expected. I may sound stupid, but where do I set the
attribute permissions for a single user? Isnt that something that I would
have had to intentionally done (and would most likely have remembered)?

Permissions?  What else is different about them?  Just because they have the
same GPO's, are they applied as expected to the users affected?  Are they in
the same OU's etc?
RSOP might be a worthwhile tool to look at if you suspect the GPO is not
firing correctly but greyed out tabs are usually due to only having read
permissions on the attribute.  If this is unexpected, then have a look at
your process to apply the permissions and see if anything went astray there.

The attributes are actually greyed out, and not even editable. I have no
errors in the event log, all of the users that are having the problem (which
i now now is not related to the firewall, due to the fact that I just found
an instance proving otherwise...one more variable out of the way) have the
same GPOs, there are using the same DNS, and the same version and patch
level of XP. I can't think of any other things to check. Any other ideas?
Thanks

I'm not using the XP firewall yet, but I'll consider it with SP2 since it is
much better.  The built in firewall isn't supposed to interfere with
communications with DC's, I think.  Are you getting any specific error
message when users try to edit their attributes?  Or do they just not have
permission to do so?  Check the event logs to see if there are any errors.
