Have you run GPResults or GPMC GP Results wizard against that user on
that
computer to verify that the settings are being processed?

Darren,

  I linked the screen savers lock GP to the users OU but the policy is
still not working. What am I overlooking? I set this GP up like the
other ones and this is the only one that I can't get to work...

Chris
If you set the policy on the user configuration side of the GP Editor,
then
you need to link it to users to take effect. So if right now its linked
to
OU that only contains computers, it will not work. It would need to be
linked to an OU containing the users you want to control.

Darren,

   I created a Group Policy for the workstations to Password protect
when the screen saver comes on. I have it linked and enforced to the OU
that contains all the workstations, however, the workstations aren't
being password protected. Should I run GPUpdate? I have other GP's
created, linked and enforced that work with no issues. Do I need to link
the GP to the users instead of computers? I'm not sure what to do except
go to each workstations display properties and check the box to password
protect, which I don't want to have to do. Let me know what you can come
up with?

 Thanks,
 Chris Williams, MCSE NT4 & 2000

Chris-
I'm a little confused on your question, since it was asked on this
thread,
which was started by Neil. What exactly is not working?

Mathieu,

  I think you have my case confused with someone else. My issue is the
Password protect group policy that for some reason is not being applied
to the workstations...

hello,

on the GPO to block, add IPSEC so to deny any non encrypted traffic 
(mandatory to encrypt).

As only these stations uses IPSEC, they won't be able to connect to
others 
workstations neither servers.

The only solution for those bad boys is to stop the ipsec windows
service,
so you will enforce it started through the same GPO
