Enfocing Group policy throughout Domain

My company is running a Windows 2000 Domain, I have
enabled a default Domain policy to enforce the
homepage of our corporate Intranet site.
There are no separate OUs in our domain hence only one
policy should apply, I have set the default
policy to no over ride, it should propagate to all
authenticated users, regardless of local computer
settings.

The problem I am encountering is that - despite having
configured as above I am finding certain users
are finding that their Homepage is being automatically
reset to msn.com. This happens even when I set
it to disable computer configuration settings.

Are there any settings that I may be missing, any
additional settings that may be conflicting within the
Domain Policy that I need to be aware of (eg Windows
Update etc).

Any pointers would be much appreciated.

Regards

Rashid
 
Hi Rashid,

It properly the Group Policy cannot work on your
workstation. What is the OS the workstation using?

Try to identify the group policy it is working on the
workstations by gpresult.

If GPO cannot work, you property need to reset WMI first.

Thanks and Regards

Hi Jacky,

Thank you very much for your response.
All our machines are using Windows 2000. The policy worked
selectively, I think the reason for this is that some
machines may have some setting in GP or the registry that
may overwrite the Domain policy.
I have employed a work around by specifying the default
URL on problem PCs.
Its not ideal, but it worked.

Thanks again for your assistance, I will investigate the
GP result option.

Regards

Rashid
