Ah yes. That could explain it. I wonder if Computer and User policies are applied/updated independently of one another. If that’s the case, and round robin is enabled, it might explain what you’re seeing. Maybe one of the heavy hitters here can tell us for sure.
Once your updated GPOs replicated to the DC in the other site did you see the expected behavior?

Seems like I neglected to mention that I have another Domain Controller at another site and the User settings were being applied from there. Interesting though that my Computer settings were from one DC and the User settings from the other. Appreciate the help. Happy New Year to you.

From: Paul Everett [mailto:evere...@leementalhealth.org] Sent: Thursday, December 31, 2009 3:28 PM To: NT System Admin Issues Subject: simple gp issue I hope this is simple. I made an Intranet webpage everyone’s home page using my domain group policy. The problem is some people are getting it and some aren’t. All users are in the same OU and all computers are in the same OU (only the Domain policy applies to each). I tried gpupdate /force locally on the computers, but this works on some and not others. Is this just a waiting game, or is there another issue. I thought “gpupdate /force” would be the end all. Thanks, Paul Everett IS Dept.
