GPO's & XP

[Tim]

I have an XP Pro SP1 box that will not take the
Win2KServer GPO that I have set up. Any clues as to why
XP Pro won't take the GPO settings?? This is driving me
nuts. I can't move to XP boxes w/o having the GPO work.

Thanks for any help!

Can you describe what you mean in more detail? Are you getting any errors in
the event log? Do the machines have gigabit ethernet cards by chance?

Some suggestions:
1. Verify network connectivity
- ran 'netdiag' at client and 'netdiag' & 'dcdiag' on DCs
2. Ensure that your policy are properly configured
- linked to the proper OU
- security filtering (Authenticated Users have Read & Apply Policy)
3. Check replication
- use 'repadmin /showreps' to ensure that there are no replication issue
- use 'gpotool' to verify that policies have been synchronized

Run gpresult again.
Check event logs on clients for error.
