if I link the gpo to the domain directly can I filter through security
groups?

Yes you can, but I wouldn't suggest linking to domainlevel.

when I create a security group and I put a username in the group, then I run
whoami from the client machine, and the group doesn't show up in the list of
the groups,

I used whoami /groups /all

I created a gpo that just disables the screen saver for the user.That's the
only setting.
I created a group I want to apply the gpo to. I put one user in that group
The gpo is linked to domain level

when I run rsop on the client computer, I get a message saying that the gpo
has been denied for security filtering, I checked the read, apply group
policy checkboxes for the security group,

any idea?

Did you re-login after you applied the groupmembership to the user?
I created a gpo that just disables the screen saver for the
user.That's the only setting.

Than why would you put this gpo at domain level?
I created a group I want to apply the gpo to. I put one user in that
group The gpo is linked to domain level

Did you check "apply gpo" to that group?

rebooting the client solved everything,

isn't there any command line for a client to get active directory updates?

Thanks for your help

Sure.
XP:gpupdate /force
W2k: secedit /refreshpolicy machine_policy /enforce & secedit /refreshpolicy
user_policy /enforce

There are some settings that get only applied on reboot.

at command prompt type: gpupdate /?
