    user config GPO linked to computer OU but not apply to all computer altough they get the policy


    Hi , We have a user config GPO for locking the computer after a specific time, linked to the 4 computer OUs. But it randomly works. Some computers get locked after, and some do not, although they got the GPO.Thanks in advance for your support

    GPOs linked to user OUs not appearing in Results Wizard

    Hello, I'm noticing an issue in my domain where GPOs linked to user OUs are not being applied and not even appearing in the Group Policy Results Wizard report (neither under Applied GPO's nor Denied GPO's, like they don't exist at all).

    A few clues:

    • I did recently release June Windows updates including MS16-072. However, I was aware of the security processing change and all the related GPO's already had "Authenticated Users" with Read and Apply permission. I added "Domain Computers" to one GPO as a
      test but no luck.
    • So far, issue is appearing on Windows 10 computers only. Computers are correctly processing GPO's linked to the computer's OU/hierarchy. A GPO containing loopback-processed user settings does appear under the user settings in the Results wizard, but that
      GPO is linked to a "computers" OU.
    • If I link a "user" GPO to a "computers" OU, it appears in the Results Wizard under user settings. However, this is a drastic change in behavior and will interfere with desired outcomes such as a user having drives mapped to their department's files regardless
      of which computer they use.

    Please advise, do I need to adjust some setting in Windows 10 to restore processing of GPO's linked to user OU's?

    Thanks in advance for any assistance.

    How to apply GPO to specific server in SERVERS OU?

    • Servers OU - contains all servers, including server1. Main OU for applying GPOs on servers. So, shifting server1 to another OU isn't an option for me.
    • Users OU - Contains all users.

    I want to apply a GPO to server1, that will run a logon script when users log in to it. Others servers should not be affected.

    How to do it?

    What I have done.

    - Created GPO, set user Logon script, enabled loopback policy with the merge option in Computer Configuration.

    - Applied the GPO to Servers OU.

    - Set the security filtering, and added server1, given permissions are Read, Apply GPO.

    - Removed Authenticated users.

    What is wrong here?

    GPO for certains users on certain computers

    I'm quite new at using GPO however, I've come across a problem that I can't find an answer or clear enough explanation to solve. I have 10 users in an OU of about 20 users that I want to have a GPO apply but only on two computers that are in their own
    OU. It was suggested to create a security group where the members are the 10 users and apply the security group to the computer OU. I attempted this but am not at all successful. Is there an example of how this works? My friend Bing and Google come up
    with all kinds of answers but none of which apply.
