We have an issue where items that are set with a machine's Local Group Policy Editorwithin the Security Settings area of Computer Configuration list asNot Defined when running a RSOP on the same machine. We also noticed this problem continued to exist when joined to the domain environment. Case in point, if there is a setting applied via the Local Group Policy, but not set via a domain GPO, when running a RSOP on that machine, instead of seeing the setting and the Winning GPO to be "Local Security Policy", the setting's value is listed asNot Defined. We've verified that even though it says Not Defined, the settings still take effect. In addition, for a non-domain joined machine, when we make any change to any setting that falls within theLocal Policies-Security Options, even after a RSOP, the setting doesn't display, but only shows within theLocal Group Policy Editor.
We have reset the security database to the Vista default, but the issue still seems to persist.... We are building our image with numerous applications, so we are trying to avoid beginning from scratch.
Suggestions to this frustrating problem are welcome.
