I have been attempting to apply two program exceptions to XP SP2 machines using group policy updates. I have made all the changes through the management console and have checked the syntax repeatedly for accuracy. However, I never see any changes reflected on the target machines. My quiestion is: If I make changes to the program exceptions through Group Policy, should I see those new program exceptions show up on each targeted machine? Any help would be welcome. Thanks
Is the GPO being applied? Run RSoP on one of the machines to be certain that this is applying. If it isn't, we can troubleshoot it... -- Paul Williams Microsoft MVP - Windows Server - Directory Services http://www.msresource.net | http://forums.msresource.net
Hello, Yes, you should see those changes in Windows firewall Exceptions on target computers or like Paul Williams wrote by running RSoP. Regards
I have run the RSoP and no changes are being made. I can look at Group Policy and see the changes against the default domain policy but they never seem to get pushed down to the individual machine. I have also used the GPMC and it doesn't seem to help either. My problem is simply getting changes to the firewall that are resident in the default domain policy to actually happen on a machine that is a member of that domain. In the RSoP, only Windows Update shows up under Administrative templatesWindows Components. It just completely ignores all the policy changes I made to the domain group policy. Help!
