Hi Keith, It's a feature. Blame Novell ;-) If you're running in a pure NDS environment and using dynamic local user, then local policies will be overwritten by Novell workstation policies. You can get around this by refreshing the files in system32\grouppolicy post reboot/logon. regards, Rick Ulrich Mack Volante Systems ________________________________ From: thin-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx on behalf of Keith Sirmons Sent: Sat 2/04/2005 6:43 AM To: thin@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: [THIN] Re: Group policies created on the TS do not stay afterreboot Does anyone have a clue why my policies are being deleted when the server reboots? Thanks for any help, Keith Keith Sirmons Computer and Network Support College of Veterinary Medicine >>> KSirmons@xxxxxxxxxxxx 03/30/05 7:54 AM >>> I login as administrator, open gpedit.msc and browse to computer configuration\administrative templates\windows components\terminal services. If it set a policy to remove the windows security from start menu, it works for all new users that login. But if I reboot the server, the policy is lost and the state changes back to not configured. This happens for any policy I change, not just the security button. I am not using a domain controller with the system because we are a Novell shop and all users are authenticated through NDS.
