OU must have same wallpaper. Well when i log user in one machine, gpo is not
on, but if i use terminal server, gpo is ok.
In machine where i've log in, i wathed that in documente settings, it was
creat file with name of profile, and in server there are same file, what's
wrong?
When i make some changes in server, about GPO's i execute this command:
gpupdate /force, ( in server and machine )
I don't untherstand, can you help me?
Thanks

Hi Antonio,

Thanks for using the newsgroup.

According to your description, it seems that you want to apply some group
policy to the OU you created on the SBS 2003 to force the user to the same
wallpaper.

Before we go any further, could you tell us the OS running on client is
windows 2000 or windows XP, and please also tell us about the file you mean
in the document setting. So that we can help you clarify issue more clear:

Can I assume that your goal is to Deploy Custom Desktop VIA Group policy to
that OU in a domain File used for Desktop is stored locally on the client
machineYou can configure the following setting in group policy

The Domain Policy you want to apply to the OU:

User Configuration->Administrative Templates->Desktop->Active
Desktop->Active Desktop Wallpaper

Wallpaper Name: enter into a file for the wallpaper on the SBS server, also
make sure that this folder need to put in a network shared folder that all
the users in that OU can access, I suggest you put a UNC name here.

Please also check to make sure the enable active desktop policy is enabled.
User Configuration->Administrative Templates->Desktop->Active Desktop

If the problem still exist, please run the RSOP and paste the results to
newsgroup, you can follow the steps below to run the rsop:

A. Click Start, click Control Panel, double-click Administrative Tools, and
then double-click Active Directory Users and Computers.
B. In the console tree, expand Active Directory Users and Computers, expand
Domain, expand Organizational unit, and then expand child organizational
unit.
C. Right-click the user on which you want to run RSoP, point to All Tasks,
and then click Resultant Set of Policy (Planning).
Then paste the results to the newsgroup.

Folder Profiles are shared with permitions to read for users and inside this
folder there are another witch name is desktops ( is shared too) where are

Hi,

Thanks for updates and effort in this issue.

I am sorry due to the newsgroup limitation we can not attach the files on
it, so could you write down the RSOP results to the newsgroup. Thanks for
your efforts.

In addition, does it occur to all the client computers or some client
computers? If you apply the policy to one of the client does the issue
exist or not?

I am here waiting for your updates. Your satisfaction is our top goal.

Best regards,
