Again, I would suggest you run that command as an Administrator, so that you get computer results.

Darren,

The syntax I used, which I typically use across all platforms, is Gpresult /v > textfile.txt

I just tried it again and get the same results in that all I see is the User Settings and nothing about the Computer Settings.

Anyways, thanks for explaining this for me and I will start to use GPMC as much as possible.

Tom

It could be an oddity in the different versions of gpresult. What syntax were you using for Win7? Frankly, I never use gpresult. I find that for this particular information, the GP Results report in GPMC is much more functional, regardless of target OS version and generally easier to read ☺.

Darren,

Thanks for the reply.

Your suggestion worked in that the GPMC's GP Results wizard for Windows 7 shows me the Computer Settings applied, its settings which applied, and specifically that the Default Domain Policy applied and its specific settings. I cant say I've seen anything like this before. Have you?

Thanks again for your help Darren!

Tom

Tom-
Try running GPMC’s GP Results wizard for the Windows 7 machine. I suspect what you’re seeing is more an artifact of gpresult than of the actual policy processing going on at the machine.

Hello,

Thanks for your response.



Some further clarification on the issue.



You can see by the GPResults below that the Default Domain Policy is not applied for the user account because it has no User Config settings. This is acceptable and I am not concerned about this. I understand this is normal behavior. My concern is I do not see the Computer Settings apply for a domain user on a Windows 7 machine, but I do see the Computer Settings apply for the same domain user on a XP machine and for the domain Administrator. Why is this, and is this an error, configuration issue, or just normal behavior with Windows 7?



What follows are 4 items: 1) GPresult for domain user, frizzo on Windows 7 machine, 2) Gpresult for domain user, frizzo on an XP machine, 3) Gpresult for domain Administrator on Windows 7 machine, 4) Default Domain Policy for the domain.



Please observe that the Computer Settings appear in the Gpresult report for frizzo on the XP machine and Administrator on the Windows 7 machine, but Computer Settings do not appear on the Gpresult report for frizzo on the Windows 7 machine. Why is this? This is my concern.



1. 1) GPresult for domain user, frizzo on Windows 7 machine

Tom-
I’m a bit confused by your description that, Computer settings do not apply “when a user logs-on”. They (Computer Settings) normally only apply to the computer, regardless of what user is logged in. Can you be more specific about what you’re expecting to happen?

Thanks!

Subject: [gptalk] Computer Settings of Default Domain Policy do not apply to client accounts


In my Server 2008 R2 domain, I have a Server 2008 R2 Domain Controller with 3 Windows 7 workstations and 1 XP workstation. DNS resides on the Domain Controller and all 4 workstations joined the domain with no issue.

Under my Human Resources OU, I have an OU called Human Resources Users and another OU called Human Resources Computers. My workstations reside in the Computers OU and the users reside in the Users OU.

When a domain user logs-on to any Windows 7 machine, the Computer Settings of the Default Domain Policy do not apply, however they do apply when a domain user logs-on to the XP machine. When a domain administrator account logs on to the Windows 7 machine, the Computer Settings of the Default Domain Policy apply as well.

What follows is the Gpresult /v from the logon of a domain User. Any suggestions on why this is happening?
