Hi Michel... Is MSN supposed to be MSN messenger? I dont think the policies are for that, but for Windows Messenger.....Or maybe I'm just not reading this right.
Not that it would make applying them any differently, but you might be able to just eliminate that policy, if that's the case.

I can't seem to make 2 policies apply simultaneously. Here is the configuration: Domain - Users_ou1 - Users_ou2 - Users_ou3 - Users_ou4 - Users_ou5 - Users_ou1 - Computers_ou1 - Computers_ou2 - Computers_ou3 - Computers_ou4 - Computers_ou5 The OUs are different departments and they contain user's accounts for the users OUs and computer's accounts for the Computers_ou. I created a GPO using the Windows XP sp2 adm templates. I applied/modified them from a station with the 2k3 admin pack and GPMC. The GPOs that I wanna apply are quite basics. 1- MSN - I deny the launch of msn at windows start and prevent running the program. 2- unwanted programs - I denied the exe for the latest version of MSN (for some reasons, the MSN gpo doesn't catch it up) The result that I have is the following: Applied Group Policy Objects ----------------------------- screensaver unwanted Default Domain Policy OR Applied Group Policy Objects ----------------------------- screensaver MSN Default Domain Policy And what I would like is: Applied Group Policy Objects ----------------------------- screensaver unwanted MSN Default Domain Policy Note that the MSN is applied to the computers_ou and the unwanted on the users_ou Anyone can share a thought about it? Thanks!
