Why is my group policy not implemented across our WAN?

[Guest]

We have 3 remote office each on a different private subnet (192.168.2.X, 3.X
and 4.X)with access to our main office via T1 GRE tunnels. We are native
windows 2000 environment AD SP4 and all clients are either w2k or xp pro. I
recently made changes to our group policy and noticed(over a month since
policy change)that the policy was not being pushed down to clients in our
remote offices. Users logging in from our remote sites are getting a login
prompt and the login script runs. We can ping (using name or IP address) our
DC from remote site and vice versa. Policy changes in past has worked. The
only thing different is we installed a new firewall. Is there any particular
service or port i need to open up to allow group policy to propigate to our
remote offices?

There's several. Check for replication errors and see if you've got any.
Without a lot of ports (for RPC) open, or some kind of tunnel, I'd expect
more than just not GPOs to be working...
