Group Policy Problem

[Ravenrx7]

Hello, I'm having a problem with pushing out a wallpaper design via OU group polices on my 2000 server. I have the Active Desktop policy enabled, and the client are one 2000 server " child domain contoller" and two XP workstations. Any suggestions?

Do you have the users located in the OU?

Edit something else in the GPO temporarily like adding the log off option to the start menu. See if this option appears then at least you'll know if the GPO is being applied. Adding wallpaper can be a bit temperamental...

I know what the Problem was, that wallpaper design must also be in that location on the computer I'm tryign to push from, such as:

C:\winnt\web\wallpaper ( workstation)
server : " "

I'm running into a problem pushing to XP machines any suggestions? Josh McMahon

Yes,

When the profile loads it seems to like it's going to work then changes the background to a different color than the selected location Josh McMahon
