How to verify policy is applied

[Rich S.]

Hello All,

Quick question: How can I track / monitor / verify what group policies are
being applied to a computer / user? What tools are available for this?

TIA,
Rich

To force a policy to apply and analyze policy propagation,
use the 'secedit' tool.

type secedit on the command prompt for the syntax.

To force policies to apply, use
secedit /refreshpolicy machine_policy /enforce
or
secedit /refreshpolicy user_policy /enforce

hope this helps

gpresult.exe which is available in the resource kit can tell you when
the group policy was last applied and from what domain controller.
