Help with Effective Policy Settings

[david]

HI, I have a member server on a Windows 2000 domain. When I open up the
local policy on the member server, the effective policy setting for two
domain accounts on "Act as part of the OS" is grayed out and unchecked. I
need to get these boxes checked.

On the DC, I added the users and it is correct there. I have made these
same changes for "Log on as a Service" and that accepted the effective
policy settings.

Thanks for any help here.

That means that Group/security policy is being applied at a higher priority
level such as the domain/OU level. You can use the support tool gpresult to
see what computer configuration policies are being applied to that server.
One of those policies [other than local] has that user right defined. You
might want to create an OU for that server, move it into the OU, and create
a Group Policy with that user right configured to what you need for that
server. --- Steve

Thanks for your help Steven. The new OU solution worked fine.

Thanks
