Have you switched the AD mode from Mixed to Native? -----Original Message----- From: Sullivan, Glenn [mailto:GSullivan@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx] Subject: [THIN] POLEDIT policy in an Active Directory I am pulling my hair out here... I had an NT4 domain. My Win2K terminal server was happily pulling a unique policy file from my file server, from a non-NETLOGON share. Upgrade the NT4 domain to Active Directory... Now it appears that the policy files in this unique location are not being applied. I double checked the NetworkPath and UpdateMode entries in the registry, and they still point to the correct location, and UpdateMode is still 2 (manual update). But the policy is not being applied. I turned on auditing on the folder where the policy file lives, and there aren't even any failed Object Access audits; it is just ignoring the registry settings completely! Frankly, I intend to replace these with Group Policy, but wanted to do so carefully, so I wanted to continue with my "Tried and tested" .POL files for now. Anyone have any suggestions? BTW, I have not modified the default domain policy at all, and this TS is currently in the "Computers" OU, with no special GPO's applied. Vanilla Active Directory install...
