Hi
Does the group policy by default affects (pose restrictions) to Local Administrator user or members of Local Administrators group on a Windows system.
Thanks

We're using Group policy preferences to deploy shared printers to users but certain computers keep getting the following error on some of the printers deployed but not all of them.
Event Type: Warning
Event Source: Group Policy Printers
Event Category: (2)
Event ID: 4098
Date: 2009/02/25
Time: 8:34:07 AM
User: NT AUTHORITY\SYSTEM
Computer: computername
Description:
The user 'printer' preference item in the 'Information Systems Settings {3FABC171-BB2D-482A-911C-B0D11D227D8B}' Group Policy object did not apply because it failed with error code '0x8007007b The filename, directory name, or volume label syntax is incorrect.' This error was suppressed.
For more information, see Help and Support Center at http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/events.asp.
The most users are only members of the local users group on their computers. The user's computers are Windows XP sp3 with the CSE installed and the print server is Windows 2003 SP2. I can temporarily resolve the issue by re-applying the printer's security settings on the server but the error does come back within a week. On another note, some of the printers won't map for the user. They'll get an error saying "You do not have sufficient access to your computer to connect to the selected printer." Even though all the printers have the default permissions with everyone group having print permissions set. Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks,

2. I want to add folder on local client computer when users logs in RDP farm. GPO "Open File dialog" doesn't work here too.
Please help.
The FSMO server recently went down unexpectedly so FSMO was forced to the 2nd DC.
A new DC was then created and is now replicating with the other server but I've noticed a major issue now with sysvol
Sysvol appears to have broken.
- dcdiag shows that DFSREvent failed.
Everything else has passed it's test
- Checked the DFS Replication event log and saw that the DFS replication service failed to communicate with the partner.
(the issue is this server is now retired) So this server should be replicating with another server.
- I was recieving a lot of errors in DFS with errors 4612 and 5008 so checked on the registry of the FSMO server and in HKLM/currentcontrolset/services/DFSR/Parameters/sysvols/seedingSysVols/domain, the parent company server was the old FSMO server.
I've changed this now to the new FSMO server
I'm just wondering if anyone can suggest what steps I can take to get the sysvol replicating sucessfully so that both DCs can handle gpo's.
The only option that all seem to point to is a DFSR Sysvol Authoritative restore but I don't have a backup as I don't think sysvol was setup correctly on this even before it became the master chief?
I have created a group on my in AD called LocalAdmins.
The purpose of this is to add the LocalAdmins group which I can then add users to on the DC that will then have Local administrator access to the individual computers that I add the LocalAdmins Group to. If I add the group manually to a each workstation computer it works. fine.
However to add this group to a whole mess of computers is tedious. So I wanted to do it via a GPO, automatically. I created a GPO based on these instructions on this web site.
https://community.spiceworks.com/how_to/907-gpo-to-push-out-local-administrators-across-a-domain
I didn't do the (RDT) option he talks about.
My Servers are 2003, 2008 and 2012r2. I did this on the backup DC which is 2012r2.
When I set up a link/gpo to one OU's it did not work. I have gpupdated /force etc but it does not migrate to the computers that the users who are in that OU are using.
I then set up a test OU and put the GP off of that OU and then added a COMPUTER to that Test OU. Now note Im putting a computer into the OU not Users. This seemed to work. (the computer was an xp if that makes any difference.) So it works if I put a COMPUTER into the TEST OU but it does not seem to work for USERS, when I put the Group Policy in other OU's that are just domain Users.
Does this policy only work on computers only or what am i missing.
Thanks.

Hi guys,
I have small project: move users from the old terminal server based on Windows 2008 R2 to the new terminal server based on Windows 2012 R2. Both servers are virtual and on the same Hyper-v server. Everything went smooth, however after one day "test user" started to complain that Explorer crashes. I checked everything and I didn't find anything interesting. I asked user for password and login like him to the New Terminal server. I opened all apps plus Explorer and noticed that at one point Explorer starts to flickering and and some of the windows closed (taskbar still exist). Windows which were closed are Explorer windows with shares from File Server on the same Hyper-v server. I troubleshooted it, network etc. ALL OK.
Than I opened once again shares in Explorer and run gpupdate /force and I had the same result like user. My windows with shares closed in background.
GPO settings which deploy for Users who use Terminal Servers. I don’t have any problems on Windows 2008 R2.
I have solved problem changing option "Remove this item when it is no longer applied" plus I have changed Action to Update. However any idea why this happens?

We have 6 group policy objects tied to a domain. I added software install computer group policy to these six. When I generate RSOP on the AD box, I could see the added policy is going to apply.
On member workstation effected by this policy, I run gpresult /H GPReprot.htm. There is no trace of my added policy. Nothing in the eventvwr.
How do I troubleshoot this?
Thanks in advance

We have two domains Harris Scarfe & Best & Less with a Trust Type of Forest (Two way Trust)
In the Best & Less Domain, they can target harris scarfe security groups in group policy.
In the Harris Scarfe domain we cant target Best & Less Security groups
Why cant we target their security groups but they can target ours?
What do I need to do to troubleshoot this
Please note with file permissions on a file server, I dont have any problems targeting remote users or security groups
I have Server IP (192.168.45.41) and a shared folder (ADHOME) for network drive share. When I allocate the network drive user. Server IP is also exposed to user. I want to hide server IP on client machine.
Need your help in this regard please.
Thanks in advance
On a Windows 10 Client (threshold 2) gpresult fails to show user group memberships.
Username, Domain name and OU are listed correctly.
gpresult /r says "unexpected error" (FEHLER: Ein unerwarteter Fehler ist aufgetreten.)
In a html report built with gpresult /h all the settings are shown correctly but the list of security group memberships is just empty.
whoami /groups lists all the groups correctly but not gpresult.
I applied a GPO via Group Policy Preferences to modify register. we run gpresult at client end, we found there is an error on my GPO settings: The following settings have applied to this object. Within this category, settings nearest the top of the report are the prevailing settings when resolving conflicts.
how to fix it?
thanks.

Hi,
I just upgraded the Central Store with the latest Windows 10 1511 template and got an error message.
The error message appeared when I edited a GPO and went into Computer Configuration > Policies.
Namespace 'Microsoft.Policies.WindowsStore' is already defined as the target namespace for another file in the store.
File \\domain.local\SysVol\domain.local\Policies\PolicyDefinitions\WinStoreUI.admx, line 4, column 80
Do anyone know how to solve this?
