Active directory: Problem with getting group policy to work

[Solemn]

I'm running a little test lab with one Windows 2000 Server and couple 2000 Pros' as client computer on my domain.

I have user accounts in active directory that work fine when logging in from domain client computers. Well, almost that is!

Problem:
I have set in Default Domain Policy/Computer Configuration things in Account Policies that work perfectly (such as Account lockout treshold, etc.). BUT, when I make a change in Local Policies (for example disable the CTRL+ALT+DEL requirement for logon), the change doesn't take effect on my client win2000 computers.

I have put the users and computers that I'm logging in with to a new organisational unit, and applied the group policy to it but it just will not work.

I have checked in my Domain policy properties that the "Apply group policy"-allow checkbox is selected for both domain computers and domain users, in wich my users and computers belong.

If someone can get something out of this messy explanation and help me, it would be greatly appreciated!

Never mind, I found the right thing to do in Microsoft's knowledge base article 246108.

I made my server assign its IP-address via DHCP to be the clients DNS address. Now all client computers apply the group policy.

Damn it...I worked three days on this and in the end the solution was so easy...
