Yep, you're saying what I thought, if the user is not in the TS OU then any
user configs will not apply. Thx

In it's vanilla form, Users get their GPO User Config settings from any OU's
that they belong to, and levels up.
 
So, unless your users are in the TS OU, User config settings applied to the
TS OU do not apply.
 
Unless you turn on "Loopback" GPO processing... if you do that, then the
User config settings will "Loop back" onto all users that log onto any of
the computers in that GPO...

Group Policy clarification please. If I have a default and also have a
Terminal Server OU with its own group policy, do changes under the User
Configuration apply if only the terminal server is under that OU?

Example...
 
OU=Terminal Server
Object=Citrix Server
 
There are no users under the Terminal Server OU. Does the GPO linked to the
Terminal Server OU affect computer configuration only?
