Workstation Security Logs filling Up

Running Windows 2003 servers as domain controllers, all workstations are
Dell.

Group policy is set to require the security log of a workstation to
overwrite when it reaches the alloted size. This is not happening. On
several (but not all) of our workstations, the security log file fills up
and does not allow the user to log on until an administrator clears the log.
On some of these workstations the log is filling up almost daily. Am I
missing a setting? Where should I look to eliminate this problem? Thanks
 
John,

Can I recommend that you run RSOP.msc on the machines that have problems
and confirm that the GPO is being applied. It is also worth checking the
consistancy of group policy accross the SYSVOLs on the Domain controllers
using gpotool from the resource kit.
