| Hi,
I have changed some settings in GPO for some client machines (XP/Vista). Some of the clients are updated but few Vista Machines are still showing old settings. Kindly guide how to enable verbose log in Vista & from where to check these logs.

| Hi Dhiraj,
The simple answer is you don't need to. By default Vista lists verbose GP logging within the Event Viewer (go to Event Viewer>Application and Services Logs>Microsoft>Windows>Group Policy>Operational).
It was discussed here (http://www.freelists.org/post/gptalk/Enabling-verbose-logging-in-Vista, 8) on the old GPOGuy freelist.
Hope this helps

| Hi Dhiraj,
I know many on this news group like the event log processing.... but I am not one of them...
By all means try the log, but if you can't get anywhere, you may like to try my free utility that you can download from http://www.sysprosoft.com/index.php?ref=activedir <http://www.sysprosoft.com/index.php?ref=activedir&f=policyreporter.shtml> &f=policyreporter.shtml
It has the option to activate verbose logging and then, after you have reapplied Policy, it will display the log in a more meaningful way.
I would be interested in your feedback on how easy you find the event logging in resolving your problem.

| Hi Andrew,
I have already checked that events & didn't find any error. I have tried many times to update the new settings also but still that client machine is having old GP Settings.

| Yes, Darren this Vista machine is having correct Computer Policy which I want to apply.
Aside to Alan, I have downloaded your tool & tried enable verbose logs & seen the logs also but unable to find any error/problem. Kindly advice where to check the exact error as the computer policy is not getting updated on some vista client machine.

| Hi Dhiraj,
It is hard to say where the problem is because it could be anywhere... If you like, send me the log with a brief description of what should be happening and I can have a look at it...

| Dhiraj-
Here are a few points to keep in mind if policy is not applying:
-- the computer or user is not properly targeted for the GPO in question (you can verify this by running a GP Results report from the GPMC)
-- there is a problem on the server side. That is, the GPO in question has not properly replicated (most likely its SYSVOL portion) to the DC being used by the clients
-- there is a problem on the client side. This is the biggest category where problems occur, and can result from any number of reasons, but typically, if something is wrong with GP processing, it will show itself in the event logs. As has already been mentioned, Vista includes verbose logging within the Operational Event Log for Group Policy, but also still includes summary logging within the Application event log. Therefore, you should at least see some evidence of the problem there. If not, then the client is not getting the policy at all and that usually means that one of the first two issues above is the cause.
