Hi!

I have defined logon message via domain group policy (win2008 level domain.)
Now i do not need that message any more so I defined that policy as "Not
defined".

It workéd fine with W7 32 bits( no logon message any more) but not with W7
64 bits.

What could be the problem with 64 bit version of W7 and group policy and how
to solve it? I am not going to raise domain level as 2008r2 soon.


Best Regards,

Esa Haajanen

Hello Esa,

Are the 64bit machines in the same OU, which setting does it show with rsop.msc?

Best regards

Hi!

They are in same OU so that policy should work(as it works with 32b W7).
Using rsop I see that those policies are "not defined" as they are supposed
to be.
But still getting those annoyning messages.

By the way this happened after cloning in which Norton Ghost was used.
I think that registry setting was somehow left to that image(at that moment
that image was captured that policy was on).

The problems seems really be that that rsop.exe says that interactice logon
policies are in "not defined" state but still there is something left in the
registry.

This message is now seen at about 2500 computers so what would be best way
to get rid of it?

Best Regards,

Esa Haajanen

Can you try enabling the policy again, but setting the text to blank?

Hello Esa,

As you are talking about a cloned machine, is the image/clone prepared with
sysprep? Otherwise do it and then check again. Machines that are duplicated
must be prepared with sysprep otherwise you can have problems as ssen with
GPOs for example.
