Have a 2003 sever domain with XP clients joining that domain. I have created an OU, right clicked it and set up the GP the way I want it. When the users in that OU log on, nothing happens. Non of the settings I have lined out in the policy take effect. For instance I gave them permission to change the time on the machine, they cant. The users all have the default Users permissions. Any ideas of what Im missing here

Thanks!
 
Is the machine in the OU?

Use the command-line tool gpresult (Included in Windows Server 2003 and
Windows XP) to find out how policies applies to the particular computer.

No its not. I was under the understanding that if it was a user setting
it applied to any machine the user logged onto and that I only needed to add
the computer to the OU if I was applying computer specific settings under
Computer Configuration.
