Description:

Security policy in the Group policy objects are applied successfully.

For more information, see Help and Support Center at http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/events.asp.

Now according to the Event log it only applied the security policy, nothing else. Even when I try to manually grab the GP on the client it doesn't work, nor does it come up with a error message. The client is on the domain, no issues there. This is the only 2000 client on the network (Updating is NOT a possibility) ... XP works without issues.

Any ideas?

Thanks,

Well without knowing too much about your OU structure - and assuming that the XP and the 2k client are both applying the same GP i woud say that the users using the 2k box may not have "apply group policy" right.

If they do - or if users work on one and not the other computer. Then i would say go head hunting for basic connectivity issues.

Also does the 2k box take forever to "load personal settings"?

Dont know if this will work but try:

ComputerName = InputBox("Enter the name of a Windows XP or 2003 Computer","Information","") 

UserName = InputBox("Enter the name of the user","Information","") 

reportloc = InputBox("Enter a report location","Information","c:\temp") 

reportloc = reportloc & "\" & UserName & ".htm" 

Set GPMC = CreateObject("GPMgmt.GPM") 

Set Constants = GPMC.GetConstants() 

Set RSOP= GPMC.GetRSOP(Constants.RSOPModeLogging,"",0) 

RSOP.LoggingComputer=ComputerName 

RSOP.LoggingUser=UserName 

RSOP.CreateQueryResults() 

RSOP.GenerateReportToFile Constants.ReportHTML, reportloc 

msgbox("report made to " & reportloc)

Put that into a text file and rename it "GPO_Result.vbs".

Now go to C:\ and create a directory called "temp".

Now run the vbs script. This will create a report depending on the username and computer name you insert into the input boxes.

This has worked on Server 2003 and XP Pro.

Choc

If he was able to join the domain, then his DNS should be fine. If you just added the computer account, it will be in the computers container and unless the policy you are talking about is the default domain policy, it is not affecting that PC. Move the computer account to an OU that has the policy applied.

I compared a client that was applying GP to one that wasn't.. and these are the results (just basically from ipconfig)

The DNS are the same, Connection suffix is the same, and all that stuff the same. Now could the problem be anything to do with WINS proxy enabled?

    • yeah GSMA began working to enable end to end encryption between android and iphone last year and apparently a new standard was developed. apple has said that they would implement this in "future software updates" but i haven't heard anything since march, the time this was all reported on. shortly after, i read on forbes that the FBI suggests not sending texts between iphone and android because they're unencrypted. i use signal to chat with my wife but i'd rather just use messages tbh (she has an iphone), i'm not really a 3rd party guy haha
    • Well, I did not like the trailer for the project he went to work on also, but why do you think he should waste time with this… did you love the season 2? Maybe I am missing out after the crap I saw in first season ep1-3? I love the first last of us game… while not the BEST it was one of the games that I will remember for the EXPERIENCE it game me… last of us 2 was not on the same level at all and the show🤔 complete miss in my experience of the first few level
    • They're likely moving all resources to other things. Clearly Windows is not important to them.

    • A new Forza was among the things specifically mentioned as 'next year' during the Showcase in June. That's more than likely Horizon 6. Turn 10 made Motorsport and is responsible for the engine behind Horizon and the Fable reboot (with adjustments for each, of course). I think they'll likely remain a support studio for Playground. Given the fact that Turn 10's staff has been halved, and how much of a fumble the launch of Motorsport was (which remember, they initially branded as a 'platform' rather than just a standalone thing), the transition to support studio wouldn't surprise me.
