Hi: I try to use Group Policy to deploy office to workstations; however, i have no idea why the office is not deployed this is what i do. 1. I go to active directory user and computer to make a new policy from my domain(bbmak.com), let say that policy call office_install 2. I go in to the office_install policy, and use 'assigned' office to computer Computer configuration->software setting->(add the file 'pro11') there with 'assigned opiton' 3. I create a NEW OU(office_client) in the active directory, and i move the computer that I want to install the office under that OU(I drag the computer name that I want to install under that OU, not sure it is correct or not) 4.I go to gpmc and click the OU(office_client), and right click "link existed gpo". I pick office_install from that gpo. Here is my process. I dont know what did i do wrong

Did you force a policy refresh on the target machine? Please help survivors of Hurricane Katrina! www.redcross.org

yes i did. it seems like the policy not applying to the workstation at all because i try to change the control panel view to classical view, but it is not changing at all in the workstation

here is my gpresult from workstation it seems like not applying any result RSOP results for MAKMAK\bbmak on MAKMAK : Logging Mode -------------------------- OS Type: Microsoft Windows XP Professional OS Configuration: Member Workstation OS Version: 5.1.2600 Domain Name: BBMAK0 Domain Type: Windows 2000 Site Name: Default-First-Site-Name Roaming Profile: Local Profile: C:\Documents and Settings\Administrator Connected over a slow link?: Yes COMPUTER SETTINGS ------------------ Last time Group Policy was applied: 6/30/2006 at 9:51:37 PM Group Policy was applied from: N/A Group Policy slow link threshold: 500 kbps Applied Group Policy Objects ---- Local Group Policy The computer is a part of the following security groups: -- BUILTIN\Administrators Everyone NT AUTHORITY\Authenticated Users USER SETTINGS -------------- Last time Group Policy was applied: 6/30/2006 at 9:51:37 PM Group Policy was applied from: N/A Group Policy slow link threshold: 500 kbps Applied Group Policy Objects ---- N/A The following GPOs were not applied because they were filtered out ------------- Local Group Policy Filtering: Not Applied (Empty) The user is a part of the following security groups: --------------------------- None Everyone BUILTIN\Administrators BUILTIN\Users NT AUTHORITY\INTERACTIVE NT AUTHORITY\Authenticated Users LOCAL
