Shutdown workstations inactivity from domain group policy

I need to find a way to have workstations shut down after the user has walked away or has been inactive
meaning no keyboard, or mouse activity.  Need to have the machines shut down.    I have Active Directory on Windows 2003 server R2 Standard Edition SP 2.  If I can have this done by active directory I would like to know how. 
If it is not possible to do so with Active Directory I would like to know of any other suggestions to do this.

I have some questions:
1. What research have you done on your own so far? (If you haven't researched it on your own, why haven't you done so, before asking?)
2. Is this a scripting question? (If so, please post the script and tell what errors, if any, you are getting.)

  • Preventing Domain Group Policy from being applied

    How can a user prevent the domain group policy from being applied to his machine? And How can I stop users from doing that?

    Hi,
    No, group policy is processed by order, that is,  local GPO is processed first, and then domain policy is processed by order, which would overwrite settings in the earlier GPOs if there are conflict.
    If you don’t want to apply the domain policy, apply a higher precedence policy or disjoin the domain.

  • Cases in which Domain Group Policy settings would be reverted to default settings on a Win7 client

    Hi - I'm sure this info is out there somewhere, but I'm having a hard time finding it.  Basically, I'm trying to identify the cases in which settings deployed via Domain Group Policy on 2008R2/Win7SP1 would get reverted back to "default settings"
    on a Win7SP1 client that is still a member of the domain, and is in a proper OU, properly targeted, WMI filters should still evaluate true, etc...
    For instance, it appears that if machine-level registry settings contained within a LocalGPO file on a client get corrupted (C:\Windows\System32\GroupPolicy\Machine\registry.pol), all of those settings, plus all machine level administrative template settings
    defined in Domain Group Policy, get reverted to default settings (corresponds with Event ID 1096 in System Event Log where it references "LocalGPO").  I have not confirmed if this is the case for machine level settings defined outside of administrative
    templates in Domain Group Policy, or for any user level settings though.  (But I suspect not.)
    When a workstation is unable to talk to a Domain Controller in order to identify applicable Domain Group Policy settings (for instance, this issue:
    http://support.microsoft.com/kb/2421599/en-us), do administrative templates Domain Group Policy settings revert to defaults up until the next successful processing interval?  I don't believe
    so, but would like confirmation.
    Are there any other cases in which Domain Group Policy settings for a client still joined to the Domain would be reverted to defaults?
    And when a client is unjoined from the Domain, what Domain Group Policy settings would remain on the client?  I understand that some Domain Group Policy settings outside of administrative templates are "tattooed" to the registry.  Does
    anyone know of a full list of these settings?  I believe that most or all of the ones in Windows Settings\Security Settings are tattooed, and the only way to get these settings removed is to explicitly change them via registry edit or LocalGPO/Local Security
    Policy, after unjoining the domain.
    Any info/insight/links to other doc/etc would be much appreciated!

    Hi Shaun,
    >>If a client cannot talk to a domain controller at all, admin template settings still stay in-place on the client, correct?   
    As far as I know, it's not this case. If a client can't communicate with domain controllers, it means that the GPOs applied to the client are out of scope. As suggested by
    the article I provided, for native policy, "when a Group Policy object (GPO) goes out of scope, the policy setting is removed allowing the original configuration value to be used."
    >>What if a client looses network connectivity while reading Domain GPO?
    Group policy will be get updated when computers start up and users log on. Besides, for workstations, group policy will get refreshed at background with by default an interval
    of 90 minutes. As long as workstations can restore network connectivity, the group policy settings will get updated.
    >>Are there any other failure cases like this where some or all Group Policy settings (admin template or other areas) would get reverted?
    There are many reasons which can cause GP malfunction. However, Windows itself provides necessary tools for troubleshooting various issues. When GP malfunctions, we can check
    Event Viewer, collect group policy result, or generate group policy log to troubleshoot.

  • How to implement " log on locally" via Domain Group Policy

    Hello,
    Thanks for always being very helpful.
    My Goal:
    I want to restrict one domain user to login to one computer only  (admin/root users to login to every computer).
    I searched and I believe there is no such direct way to implement via the group policy unless I may add one GPO per user to implement"log on locally" from the group policy.
    Do you have some VB script or other good way so I should not login to each computer one by one and edit the policy manually.
    Thanks in advance.
    Muhammad Asif Server Administrator Linux/Windows

    I am sorry if I wasn't cleared, I am managing about 250 users and want accomplish from some centralized locations. I don't want to go to every machine and apply the changes.
    I want to let one domain user to login to one system only.
    I have the list of computer name VS username, and I want to apply from centralized location without login to each computer one by one.
    Thanks a lot for the assistance.

    The solution can only be applied once at the DC with ADUC or with Set-ADUSer as I posted.  It only needs to be run once from one DC.
    ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

  • Set inactivity time via group policy or registry

    Hi,
    I have been asked to enable the "Show me as away when I've been inactive for X minutes" option within Skype's general settings for everybody in the company and also set the time option to 5 minutes.
    I so far can't find a Group Policy template that allows this however I was wondering if there was a simple registry setting that would enable this? That way I could just push out the registry setting company wide.
    Would anybody be able to point me in the right direction for this?
    Thanks
    David

    Hi,
    No, I think there is no change from old “Win32_TSPermissionsSetting”. You can use the same class for remote control.
    You may use WMI to change the listener's security descriptor.  For example, you may use the AddAccount method to add a group to the default RDP-Tcp listener and grant it Full Control (below is using wmic logged in locally):
    wmic /namespace:\\root\CIMV2\TerminalServices PATH Win32_TSPermissionsSetting WHERE(TerminalName="RDP-Tcp") CALL AddAccount "DOMAIN\group",2
    After making a permission change you should log off any users that will be the target of a log off so that the change will take effect (quoted from
    this thread).
    Apart you can also try below policy setting.
    Computer Configuration\Policies\Administrative Templates\Windows Components\Remote Desktop Services\Remote Desktop Session Host\Connections 
    User Configuration\Policies\Administrative Templates\Windows Components\Remote Desktop Services\Remote Desktop Session Host\Connections 
    Set rules for remote control of Remote Desktop Session Host server user sessions: Enable
    Hope it helps!
    Thanks.

  • Domain Group Policy changes causes clients to be unable to connect to WSUS for Windows Updates

    Domain Controller is Windows Server 2008 R2 64-bit, Group Policy Management version 6.0.0.1. WSUS server is Windows Server 2008 Enterprise 32-bit, Update Services version 3.2.7600.226. Client machines are Windows 7, some are 64-bit and some are 32-bit.
    Every time we make any changes to any of our Group Policies most of our clients stop getting their Windows Updates from the WSUS server within 2-3 days. This occurs when we add a new policy for a group of users, temporarily disable a policy or edit a policy.
    Check of the WindowsUpdate.log on affected client machines shows:
    2014-06-25 13:40:44:976  760 1610 PT WARNING: GetAuthorizationCookie failure, error = 0x80072EE2, soap client error = 5, soap error code = 0, HTTP status code = 200

    A further check of the log files shows:
    2014-06-21 19:36:06:995  156 1b0c Misc WARNING: SendRequest failed with hr = 80072ee2. Proxy List used: <proxy server name:8080> Bypass List used : <(null)> Auth Schemes used : <>
    We do not use a proxy except for Internet connections. We configure IE with a pac file. This is set through Group Policy since we restrict user accounts from being able to set it. 
    The clients that are connecting to the WSUS server have these entries instead:
    2014-06-24 09:12:16:779  992 270 Agent Setting download properties on call A20329BC-3467-4B7E-B9F4-6AC6ACBA23E1: priority=3, interactive=1, owner is system=0, proxy settings=1, proxy session id=2
    I have a routine that will fix the problem but it is time-consuming and pulls me away from other things I should be doing:
    Run registry files on client machine (WindowsUpdate and AU) This is not always necessary and is already set by Group Policy and the affected clients already have the registry settings. No idea why it is necessary to do but it the steps below don't always
    work unless it is.
    netstop bits and netstop wuauserv
    ipconfig /flushdns
    Delete qmgr*.* files from Downloader folder
    Delete Software Distribution folder
    Run from command prompt:
    sc.exe sdset bits D:(A;;CCLCSWRPWPDTLOCRRC;;;SY)(A;;CCDCLCSWRPWPDTLOCRSDRCWDWO;;;BA)(A;;CCLCSWLOCRRC;;;AU)(A;;CCLCSWRPWPDTLOCRRC;;;PU)
    sc.exe sdset wuauserv D:(A;;CCLCSWRPWPDTLOCRRC;;;SY)(A;;CCDCLCSWRPWPDTLOCRSDRCWDWO;;;BA)(A;;CCLCSWLOCRRC;;;AU)(A;;CCLCSWRPWPDTLOCRRC;;;PU)
    netstart bits and netstart wuauserv
    wuauclt /resetauthorization /detectnow
    Run Windows Updates again from Control Panel
    This routine always fixes the problem but I've found that I must do each step to guarantee success.
    How or where is the proxy setting being changed for WSUS that we see in the WindowsUpdate logs and how do I prevent this from happening? It is also curious that it happens to most but not all of the client machines. When it does happen it's not always the
    same client machines.

    You're right - the WSUS server is on the inside and does not need a proxy server. Tried running the netsh winhttp reset proxy command but was still not able to connect to the WSUS server. After running the netsh winhttp reset proxy command received response:
    Current WinHTTP proxy setting: Direct access <no proxy server>.
    Ran the command at 13:49 and then tried Windows Updates again. Here's snippet from the log file:

  • Default domain Group Policy

    Hello,
    In my new company, I noticed that the default domain controllers policy has been (largely) modified.
    I thought it was a best practice to keep it clean (In case of restore).
    So I would like to create a new GPOs for my DCs to move some of those settings out of the default domain policy.
    For example, "Add workstations to domain". If I want to create a new policy for this particular setting, what kind of rules am I supposed to follow to make sure that my new setting will be applied before the default DC policy ?
    Is the GPO Link order enough ?
    Thank you

    Hi,
    Just a confirmation, did you mean that want to overwrite some settings in the
    Default Domain Controllers Policy?
    Within each domain, site, and OU, the
    Link Order controls the order in which GPOs are applied. If several GPOs are linked to an organizational unit, their processing is in the order that is specified by the administrator, on the
    Linked Group Policy Objects tab for the organizational unit in GPMC. The GPO with the lowest
    Link Order is processed last, and therefore has the highest precedence. Since Default Domain Controllers Policy is linked to the Domain Controllers organizational unit, you can create a new GPO and link it to this Domain Controllers organizational
    unit, then control thier order of them via Link Order.
    If anything I misunderstand or any update, please feel free to let us know.
    Hope this helps.
    Best regards,
    Justin Gu

  • Mail for exchange and domain group policy removing...

    Hi,
    I currently administer 2 domains,  both server 2003 with exchange 2003.  On the one domain I can configure any of our e series ( e51/e71/e72/e6) via MFE and permanently accept the untrusted SSL certificate. When I configure MFE to our other domain the option to accept the untrusted certificate has vanished..!
    Anyone have any ideas?  I'm sure that it's a group policy setting but I cannot spot it!

    turbominor wrote:
    No certificates have been generated bar the ones that exchange installed by default
    Hmm, I don't recall ever realizing that.  Lol.  In that case, what are you using as a root certificate?  Nothing...which explains why the cert is untrusted?  (As connections to your first Exchange server work normally, apparently you don't need a root cert for a secure connection?)  I used to get mine from http://www.cacert.org/ and installed the root cert either manually or through a device management server.
    I wasn't completely sure where I was going with my question, but just did a few web searches.  Apparently Symbian phones don't like installing self-signed certificates. "Accepting a certificate permanently" does install the cert, although I'm not sure that's quite the same thing.  You might skim http://discussions.nokia.com/t5/Eseries-and-Communicators/E72-Email-Accept-Certificate-Permanently/m... in case any of that is relevant.

  • ITunes won't work because of domain group policy

    Hi my work just implemented a really stupid group policy through our domain that dissallows any file named iTunes.exe to run. The good news is I can rename iTunes.exe and get iTunes to work. That bad news is once I rename iTunes.exe the iPod service is unable to start. The iPod service I assume is what automatically launches iTunes when you plug in your iPod. Does anyone know if a way to let the iPod service and any other file that depends on iTunes.exe that I have renamed it?

    I don't have a solution for you, but as a system administrator I feel I must comment.
    I don't know about where you work -- but at my job, deliberate circumvention of policy is "abuse" and is considered grounds for termination. The computer you use at work is not yours; it belongs to the company you work for.
    If you have a problem with the policy you should take it up with the administrators or your management -- not try to circumvent it. Perhaps the policy is based on a misunderstanding that you could clear up! You (your computer, really) might even be granted an exception to the policy.

  • Windows 8 and IE10 and 11 not accepting Proxy Settings via Group Policy from windows server 2003

    Hi
    We are still running Windows Server 2003 with a Win7 and Win8 desktop environment. I can control Win7 IE9 settings,
    But Win8 systems are running IE10. We have an internal proxy server.
    Is there any way to force the proxy settings to the Win8/IE10 or 11 systems .
    i have tried with The IE 10 .adm template and applied gpo,but does not have any proxy settings for ie10 and no changes were applies
    please can anyone help me regarding this
    i want to apply GPO from windows server 2003  to windows 8 ie10/11
    Thanks
    KNC

    Hi,   
    I agree with Zanderol24, we can install RSAT on a windows8 client, and then we can use Group Policy Management to manage group policy from the client.
    For more information about RSAT, we can refer to the following link:
    Remote Server Administration Tools (RSAT) for Windows Client and Windows Server (dsforum2wiki)
    http://social.technet.microsoft.com/wiki/contents/articles/2202.remote-server-administration-tools-rsat-for-windows-client-and-windows-server-dsforum2wiki.aspx
    For more detailed information about how to use GPP to configure the proxy setting for ie10 and ie11, we can refer to the following link:
    How to configure Group Policy Preference settings for Internet Explorer 11 in Windows 8.1 or Windows Server 2012 R2
    http://support.microsoft.com/kb/2898604
    When we use GPPs you need to be aware of the F5-F8 keys:
    Red / Green: GP Preferences doesn’t work even though the policy applied and after gpupdate \force
    http://blogs.technet.com/b/grouppolicy/archive/2008/10/13/red-green-gp-preferences-doesn-t-work-even-though-the-policy-applied-and-after-gpupdate-force.aspx
    Besides, aside from using group policy to manage IE, IEAK can also be used to do this.
    For IEAK, the following article can be referred to for more information.

  • Making a change in Group Policy in Safe Mode or rather trying...

    I need to make a change in the domain controller group policy in the following:
    We are trying to emulate using smart cards on our system. So I got a set of instructions which basically said to access the Local Group Policy editor under  Computer Configuration>Windows Settings>Security Settings>Local Policies>Security
    Options and change 'Interactive logon: Require smart card' to 'enabled'.
    Then go to the registry: 'HKLM\Software\Mocrosoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Policies\System' and change the DWORD value of 'scforceoption' from '1' to '0'. So if you don't want to use a smart card, you can hit Esc and logon with userid/password.
    Well, since I want this to happen on all our servers and workstations, I set it in the domain group policy instead of locally.
    Under 'Computer Configuration>Policies>Windows Settings>Local Policies>Security Options>Interactive Logon: Require smart cards - enable'
    Now it wants a smart card only. Of course we don't have them. Yes, I am mightily embarrassed.
    I am in Safe Mode with Networking, but it doesn't let me get into the Group Policy. Is there a way to get in?
    Win 2008 R2 with all the nasty STIGs of course.
    Stef<with my fingers crossed>

    oh dear :(
    the policy setting, and the registry key/value, you have mentioned, are exactly one and the same thing.
    it doesn't quite make sense, that you would enable this setting via GPedit and then also disable in the registry editor - you are setting the value to be=1, then setting the exact same value to be=0.
    when wishing to use smartcards, but, not enforce the use of smartcards, you don't need to do any of this at all.
    when the smartcard drivers are installed, the credentialsUI automatically changes (it detects the SC provider) and offers SClogin methods. This has been my experience over quite a few years since Win2000, and includes Win7.
    I'm not sure about Win8 + smartcards, I haven't spent time with that combination yet.
    It *might* be possible for you to try:
    on a workstation (a domain member),login with a local account. (that part may not work).
    when logged on to the workstation, open regedit, and navigate to the regkey for scforceoption. edit the ACL on that regkey to revoke/deny all permissions to all security principals *EXCEPT* for your local account.
    (this should stop the GP CSE from applying the domain GP setting to the regkey).
    then, reboot the workstation, logon with a domain admin account, and edit your Domain GP to remove the scforceoption setting. allow Domain GP to replicate. then try another member workstation or server to see how it goes.
    I haven't ever tried this, but if you can logon and edit that setting, you'll be ok.

  • Group policy remains in effect

    I have a workstation (windows xp) that I am trying to log into. I have a ZCM 10 group policy bundle that is assigned to the limited user on the workstation. The workstation for some reason has picked up wrong DHCP information and is trying to connect to a 192.168 network (which does not exist). Since it is not connected to my network, it cannot connect to the ZCM server, so no matter what user I log into on the workstation (including administrator), the group policy is in effect and it restricts everything. I cannot get into network connections to correct the DHCP error.
    How can I get the ZCM agent on the workstation to stop enforcing the group policy? Remember, this policy prevents me from accessing the control panel, command prompt, anything in the system try (no Zenworks Z), everything.

    There is no easy way to manually remove an effective group policy on a workstation... other than logging in on the domain/source that has set the policy. If PC is set to a wrong ip, but has done that via DHCP... Good thing to check if there is not some device, application or server handing out DHCP for the 192.168 network.
    This is a physical machine I presume? Might be an option to swap out or place an extra nic in the PC and see if it will get a correct address on that one.. as the one installed is primarily returning to the given 192.168.x.x address.

  • I get a Group Policy Disk Quota failure at every system start

    This is very long, my apologies
    I asked this question about a month ago and then had some medical problems so I'm starting over again.
    Whenever I start my system I get a message on the screen that the system is trying to run Group Policy for Disk Quotas.  To my knowledge I've never set a disk quota policy and I can't find any indication that one is currently set.  I freely admit
    that I could be responsible for this.  I might have done something in the early days of the system because it wasn't happening for the first month or two.
    This time I did more reading and found a procedure on TechNet at:
    "http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc749336(WS.10).aspx" which led me step by step through the procedure, although I still can't make sense of the results.
    So far I've verified that there are no policies set and that all the hard drives (3) have the Disk Quota bit 'disabled'.  I did this as 'Administrator'.
    The results from the TechNet procedure turned out to be quite long but I'm listing it here in hope that someone in the community will be familiar with this problem and be able to use the information to figure out the problem. 
    Here are the results:
    From: TechNet Group Policy Testing
    ( "http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc749336(WS.10).aspx" )
    1 - Troubleshooting using the Group Policy operational log
          a - Determine the instance of Group Policy processing
               (Before you view the Group Policy operational log, you must first determine 
               the instance of Group Policy processing that failed.)
    My ActivityID from the Group Policy operational log = C87E5BC2-FD21-4794-B678-787AB587D8D5
    2 - Create a custom view, via a query, of the Group Policy instance
    My resultant query:
    <QueryList><Query Id="0" Path="Application"><Select Path="Microsoft-Windows-GroupPolicy/Operational">*[System/Correlation/@ActivityID='{C87E5BC2-FD21-4794-B678-787AB587D8D5}']</Select></Query></QueryList>

    Did you ever have luck tracking this down?  Im getting this error and have no clue where it is coming from.  I have not enabled gp disk quotas, but I do have a network share on a domain member server that has quotas attached to each users folder. 
    I removed the quotas and still get this error when I manually perform a gpupdate. 

  • How to Add multiple entry to the group policy security filtering

    How to Add multiple entry to the group policy security filtering
    Is there any way we can add multiple entry to the Domain group policy Security filtering tab.Currently its not allowing to add more then one entry at a time.
    Getting Error like "only one name can be entered,and the name cannot contain a semicolon.Enter a valid name"

    Hi
    Are you trying to add more users or groups through Group Policy Management Security Filtering tab?
    Try right clicking on the policy and then edit
    Then in Editor Right click on the name of the policy and Properties
    Security tab and add user or group from this tab. Just make sure if you are adding user or groups "Select this object type" has
    the correct option also "From this Location" is set to your entire directory not the local server.
    Update us with the above.
    Thanks
