Hello,
I have a new setup of 2000 server, i made an
organizational unit and added a user. This will be the
template for all future users. It is attached to a
mandatory roaming profile. Its groups are domain users
and a internal group name. I applied a group policy to
this ou and one of the policies seems to have only
effected one user. The rest of the policies are fine.

Enable classic shell.

I do not want my users to be able to goto the open or
save as menu and get to the sidebard with history
documents my computer and my network places.

I set it up and tested it from notepad. The clients are
all win 2000 pro with service pack 3. It works well in
notepad but only with that user. It also doesnt prevent
the side bar in microsoft office no matter what user it
is.
Any ideas,
Chris
 
To further tshoot group policy issues enable userenv debug logging and get
a gpresult /z.


Key: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Windows
NT\CurrentVersion\Winlogon
Value: UserEnvDebugLevel
Value Type: REG_DWORD

Value Data: 10002 (Hex)

UserEnvDebugLevel can have the following
values:



NONE 0x00000000

NORMAL 0x00000001

VERBOSE 0x00000002

LOGFILE 0x00010000

DEBUGGER 0x00020000


The default value is NORMAL|LOGFILE (0x00010001).

Note To disable logging, select NONE (where the value is 0X00000000).
