Group Policy - Loopback Processing

[paulhthomas]

Chaps, looking for some help here before I go mental!! Basically I'm trying to get some group policy user config applied to users when they log into a particular set of servers which are in their own OU (a different OU to the users that are logging on to them), but the policies aren't applying. domain structure below

-Domain.com
-- Support Users (OU)
---RemedyUsers (OU)
----User1
----User2 etc etc...
----RemedyUsers (group)

-- SupportServers (OU)
---Remedy (OU)
----Server1
----Server2

I've linked the GPO with user config defined to the Remedy OU and enabled loopback processing in the computer config.
I've checked the security on the GPO and the RemedyUser group has read and apply, and also I have created a group containing Server1 and Server2, and given that permissions to read and apply so it picks up the loopback setting.

There's no mention of this policy when I run RSOP or GPResult, am I doing something wrong??

Thanks

Paul

How about starting simple with the permissions? Grant the read/apply permission to Authenticated Users and see if you get the desired result. Also you must wait for the policy to replicate to the DC that the system is using for authentication.

thanks for the reply.
I dont know why this has fixed it, but I've got around the issue by eating another GPO that contains just the loopback processing setting. It didn't like being part of another policy!!
