I am attempting to set up OU's with specific basic
policies. i.e. logon Title Bar, logon window, no run, no
control panel etc etc... how ever it never works..I am
running Windows 2000 Server with SP 4 applied. What is
up? Any suggestions on how to make the OU's and GP
provigate through the XP Pro machines? One more bit of
info, XP Pro machines are running Wireless network
connections... however it does not change results if I
hard wire the machines to the hub verses wirless
connection.. CONFUSED!
 
On the XP clients are they getting Userenv and Scecli errors in the
application event log and if so what are the details of those errors? Are
the clients pointed to a Windows 2000 DC for DNS? Is DNS setup correctly?
Here is some stuff to get you started:


Here are some ideas:

If the above does not help enable Userenv logging on the client, log in
verify you did not get the policies, do whatever you have to do to make the
policies apply. Repost with that Userenv.log and the name of the user
account you are testing with. Also be more specific as far as what
configured policies are not applying and see if the clients are reporting
any Userenv errors in the application event log.

Yeah I did the debugging now where do I find information on the data in the
log file?
 
Zip the file and post it to this newsgroup.
