GPOs not applying

[Mike]

Archived from groups: microsoft.public.win2000.group_policy (More info?)

W2K AD
I have a two deep OU structure with one GPO per OU.
A remote office, connected by a 1152Mbs downstream link
and a 288Kbs upstream link, only applies some GPO
settings. Have eliminated GPO settings and permissions by
logging in as a known good user.
Used mmc with RSop snap in to establish what is and is not
applying.
Folder redirection, which is crucial as my start menus,
desktops and My Documents are redirected, is not applying
at all.
Logon scripts are listed as applying, however no drives
are mapped despite there being a script which does this.
The script works if run manually, either locally or
remotely. This tends to indicate that the script is not
running.

Where to go from here?

Any help appreciated.

I would first check your "slow link detection" settings in Group Policy that can go
into affect and cause such behavior over a remote connection such as a GPO. There are
settings for both user and computer configuration . The slow link detection setting
itself can be modified and as to what policy is applied over it. --- Steve

Many thanks Steve.

Glad to help. Apparently "slow link detection" is not widely know about. --- Steve
