I mean edit the group policy. When the window opens that will allow you to change settings in the policy- right click the policy at the top of the window and select properties- then select the Security tab and look for any groups that have any denied settings. Since the group thing may be the cause- open AD users and computers and open the properties of the group to check the membership. When you open AD users and computers look at the top left pane to see which Domain Controller you are connected to. After you see the group membership select the other DC in AD users and computers to see if the other DC also sees the same group membership. You wouldn't by any chance be controlling any group memberships with a restricted group "group policy" would ya? Also- when you added the logon script to this policy- what file path did you specify for the logon script? Did you just open the script section of the policy and just paste your file from the clipboard or did you specify a server path like \\dc2\netlogon\deanlogonscript.vbs <file:///\\dc2\netlogon\deanlogonscript.vbs> ? If you just pasted the logon script into the default location of the scripts in the GPO- I would check the sysvol location of that policy to ensure that the logon script has been replicated to each Domain Controller. Check all your domain controller directory and file replication event logs to see if there are any indications of replication errors.

I did not apply any security filtering to the policy. I have deleted the policy and I am creating a new one. Interesting about the 2nd client not being a part of the deans suite group. I actually put that user in the group as I was troubleshooting. You may be on to something because even with the new policy, it is still not showing on the 1st client, but still showing on the 2nd client because the Group membership when the policy was applied does not reflect her new status as a member of the MGT deans suite group. When you say edit the policy in a different window, do you mean look at the policy under the SYSVOL folder?

Does your policy have any filtering enabled? If you are using GPMC it will only show the group that the policy is being applied to example "Authenticated Users." If a group is denied policy it will not show in GPMC. You will need to edit the policy to open it in a different window and then at the top of the window select and right click the policy and review the entire ACL in the Security tab to see if there are any groups that are getting denied the policy.

I will provide a snippet of the rsop from the two clients. One that is not getting the GPO first, and the 2nd snippet from the client that is. The only outright difference I see is that one DC2 is applying the policy to the first computer and DC1 is applying the policy to the 2nd computer. Even though it may smell of replication, these polices have not been changed for "months", at least the "Dean Suite non HR user logon scripts" GPO.

Either the GPO is not really linked to the hierarchy containing the users or the DC where those users are processing the GPO hasn't replicated that GPO completely. Do you see any "userinit" error events in the application event log on those clients?

ONE user in the OU gets the policy, while the other 8 do not!! What troubleshooting step am I missing?
