If a policy applied at the OU level is not affecting all the computers in the OU, the first thing I would suspect is that security filtering is in place. Have you confirmed that the Security Filtering section shows Authenticated Users having (read) permissions to the policy? You may have to go to the Delegation tab to see all the permissions applied.

I think. I am not really sure what the problem is - it just confuses me at this point. Here is the deal. I have a 7 server TS farm. They all run server 2008 64 bit edition, but I believe the problem is something with our DCs. Our domain is 2003. Server 1 has the licenses, and distributes them out accordingly. I added a GPO to it, to lock them down. All servers are in the same OU, and my test account is in a different OU with the same GPO applied to it. The servers are named STUCTX0x. STUCTX01 takes any group policy change I give it. If I change the GPO, and run a gpupdate /force... STUCTX01 takes the GPO when I log in on my test account. (lab rat) On STUCTX02-STUCTX07 it doesn't work. I logged onto the DC, and used the GP modeling wizard to simulate logging onto STUCTX02 with lab rat. It says it will pull the correct policies. So, I logged onto STUCTX02 and did a "gpresult /user lrat /v" It gives me "INFO: The user "lrat" does not have RSOP data." When I do that on stuctx01, it pulls the correct policy. Replication otherwise on the domain controllers appear to be working correctly. How do I get it to apply to all of the servers in that OU? Everything looks right to me, and I do not even know what to look at next!
