Group policy not taking effect over WAN

B

Brian

Group Policy works fine on the LAN but does not take
effect on machines over the WAN. Is there something that
has to be done to make this work through the routers over
a frame relay link?

Hi Brian

It is most likely that a slow link is beig detected.

You can turn up userenv logging and see if a slow link is being detected.
You can also set group policy to process parts of the policy even if a slow
link is detected.
