Machines are SP I am recreating GPO It's either that or a communications issu I'm not sure about the communications issue, since all VLANS in our complex here are members of servers VLAN, and users can login and manually map drives, add printers, etc, that are otherwise applied via policy Also the "standard" policy settings applyand those are not preferences. Might need to pull out wireshark, though.

Now I'm thinking there might be an issue with the policy and I'm going to recreate i I notice the problem areas are the preferences, too. That *should* work on XP SP3 but for these machines don't thanks for the tips. >>> "Mayo, Bill" <[email protected]> 7/28/2009 2:16 PM >>> Since you don't specifically mention that you confirmed, I would add that you should check resultant set of policies (RSOP) to make sure that AD thinks it should apply Not 100% sure how well this works with a WMI filter, though. ________________________________________ From: Richard Stovall [mailto:[email protected]] Sent: Tuesday, July 28, 2009 1:57 PM To: NT System Admin Issues Subject: RE: GPO won't apply Try debug logging http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc775423(WS.10).aspx http://support.microsoft.com/kb/221833 From: Tom Miller [mailto:[email protected]] Sent: Tuesday, July 28, 2009 1:44 PM To: NT System Admin Issues Subject: GPO won't apply Hi Folks, I have a GPO that won't apply to a few PCs (applies fine to others). This OU has the agency "standard" GPO applied, which work The other GPO which sets drive maps and printer preferences, desktop icons does not seem to apply at al The only customization outside the GPO is I have a "Windows XP" WMI filter in plac The filter does work fine, as I use it for a number of other GPOs.
