I have a 2003 network environment that users log into. When they login the group settings get applied to the user’s pc. (login scripts, setting ECT....) Now for some of the users the gpo settings do not apply to their pc but when I make them part of domain admins or the local pc admins group the script runs and the gpo policies get applied to theirs pcs. Now this only applies to the some of the older accounts and not to the new accounts that I create.

Any ideas, professionals

It will be welcome

thanks
 
On your group policy does the group that these users are part of have apply group policy enabled.

If you mean they are under the ou that has the gpo. yes. by default the authenticated users have rights to apply group policy. so it should be eveyone on the network and that is specific to the ou whre the gpo resides.

 
the problem is that if I create uses in the same ou with the rights as the old user ids. they work without the need of having local administrator rights to the pc. So why is some of the old ids requiring local admin rights or domain admins for the gpo setting to apply to the pc? (The big Q)
