Group Policy not loading

[slipd]

Hi guys,

I've got one machine on our domain that doesn't appear to load our Group Policy... I can log on locally as an admin and as a network admin but fine but networked users log on without any Group Policy settings; desktop, shortcuts etc.

Any ideas?

Have you tried forcing the group policy to update on that machine with a "gpupdate /force" in command prompt?

event logs should tell you why.

Resultant Set of Group Policy will also help out.

Accessible via Rsop.msc

check DNS (can you ping the FQDN of a DC?)
flush/reregister DNS
Readd to domain
use NewSID if still not working, readd to domain.
Check OU it's in within group policy that someone hasn't done something daft in AD.

I'm with Uhtred though it's usually pretty clear in the event log of either client or server what's causing it.

Frs logs on the local dc.

Is it the same regardless of whether they've logged on to the machine before?

Thanks for the replies everyone! It was all down to a colleague setting the machine a static ip...

Problem solved. Cheers.
