Policy not taking effect

Hi Sorin

Have you run gpresult to see if the policy is being applied.
I always
use this tool to check on stuff as it's pretty cool and
often helps when
stuff's not running. 

Cheers
Dan

Subject: [windows2000] Policy not taking effect

Hi list,

Do you guys have any idea on what to do when a policy won't
take effect?

Tried gpupdate /force and a reboot. None of which helped.
The policy is
set as "enforced", so I assume the policy will be
forcefully merged with
the local policies as expected.

The GPO wizards report that the GPO has taken effect, but
when looking
in the registry, the key that I wanted to change is still
unchanged.

FWIW, I need some settings in Office 2003 to be set to a
default of my
choice, and which the users cannot change.




BW,

Sorin

Yepp, I did, as mentioned with respect to "GPO
wizards" below, ie both GP
Modeling and GP Results, have been used to check for
problems.

What I found was that they are taking effect, just not all
of them(...) in
that particular GPO, and that's causing me grief [uuencode
is always on] which
fouls up posting attachments to our internal mailing lists
at the
department...

And no , me and
university helpdesk concluded it's not a mail/list-server
problem but rather that the policy setting is not taking
effect completely.

I found that out after checking, on a hunch, the registry
settings for Outlook
on my own machine. The key
"HKCUSoftwareMicrosoftOffice11.0OutlookOptionsMa
ilMessage Plain Format
MIME" is set to "0", no matter what. I
assumed the key would change to 1 when
checking the "don't use uuencode" GPO, but it
didn't...
