We use group policies to lock down a lot of the settings on desktop PCs. However the Internet Explorer security settings from the domain group policy seem not to be applying correctly on the backup domain controller. It also seems that any client authenticated by the backup DC picks up its security settings from that machine. No matter what I change the IE settings on the BDC to they keep reverting back to what they were - which is not what I set manually, nor what I set in the group policy.
It makes no difference if I reset the security settings to what they should be and reimport into the group policy. I am not too concerned about the client settings on the BDC because no one is logging on to use this as a client. What concerns me is that this DC is applying the wrong settings to the client PCs it authenticates.
This started happening after an upgrade to IE6 SP1. The same version of IE6 is on both DCs. How do I force the BDC to apply the group policy on the PDC?
