Group Policy – Please help!

by msft . Updated 18 years, 10 months ago

Hi All,

Our company is currently running an SBS box that controls the majority of our clients security settings through Group Policy Management Console (GPMC).

Just today, I was creating a new GPO to enforce some security settings but i only wanted this to apply to certain computers. So in the Security Filtering section of the Scope tab in GPMC of the GPO, I added all of the computers into there, and deleted the by default added “Authenticated Users”. When I went to run a Group Policy Modelling Query and a Group Policy Results Query to check whether the GPO worked correctly, it came up under the Denied GPOs section and the reason stated that it was “Access Denied (Security Filtering)”. It seems that whenever I remove Authenticated Users from the security filtering section, that it will ALWAYS deny my GPO. Is there anyway to just apply to users/computers without having Authenticated Users (which means that it applies to ALL users, as they are authenticated when logging in)?

I urgently need to apply this GPO and would love any help available.

Thanks all
