The 2nd client is not a member of the "MGT Dean's Suite" security group and
he apparently gets the policy. 

 

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.

Ok, I reapplied the GPO, but to no avail.

 

 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.

I don't see any userinit event erros on the client.

 

I am going to remove the link, wait about 5 or so minutes to make sure that
change replicates, and re-add the link and see what happens.

What I find as weird is that one of the users in that OU gets the policy, so
that would have me conclude that it was linked correctly.

 

I will keep the list posted as to the progress

Booker-

If the GPO containing the logon script doesn't even appear in the RSOP list
as "denied", that usually means one of two things. 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?

Let me add,

 

I "believe' for all intensive purposes, they USE to get the logon script
policy, but now it does not even show as being applied.

Subject: [gptalk] User not getting Logon script GPO

 

I have several users within a GPO that for SOME strange reason are not
getting a policy for a logon script

For all intensive purposes, everything that I looked at, says they should be
getting the policy

 

The policy itself has no special security filtering.

The policy is applied to the OU where the user accounts reside and they are
logon user scripts, not Computer Configuration start up scripts

When I run a rsop from the user's computer, or a modeling from within GPMC,
I don't even see the policy in the list of applied or denied policies

 

The kicker.. ONE user in the OU gets the policy, while the other 8 do not!!

 

What troubleshooting step am I missing?
