Hi Russ...

Enforced overrides Block Inheritance....

Enforced means run always and last really. You shouldn't even need the
block.   Should run last by default without the enforced.

We have a Default Domain level GPO that is set to "Enforced".  In this
GPO, we set a 120 minute screensaver timeout that locks the screensaver
after 120 minutes.

In a GPO at a lower OU level, we have an OU that has "Block Policy
Inheritence" turned on, and a GPO is linked to that OU that sets the
screensaver timeout to 3 minutes.

For some reason, the users in that OU are getting the default domain GPO
timeout of 120 minutes rather than the 3 minute screensaver timeout.


I assume if we turn off "Enforced" on the default domain GPO, anyone
that belongs to a Block Policy Inheritence OU will get their lower level
GPO applied rather than the default domain GPO?
