So I created an OU (OU-A) for a group of computers, and OU-B for another group of computers. I want to set a 5 min lock rule to OU-B and unlimited for OU-A.

I made a mistake of setting a 5 minute lock GPO at the Domain level which applied to all computers. Which is what I wanted for OU-B I removed it from Domain level, and put it in the OU level, I put a 5 min lock at the OU-B in Group Policy Management, and nothing for OU-A.

It's been 72 hours at least and I ran ocuple gpupdate /force, OU-A is still getting the 5 minute lock policy, However it does NOT state in the gpresult-r. Now no matter what I do, even removed the GPO all together, all the computers still have 5 min lock policy. I created a new GPO at the domain level to set it to 0 seconds (unlimited, never locked, it sitll won't apply, it still stuck at the 5 minute rule.

I have never see a GPO act this way. Any tips?
