ZCM DLU Policy Not Applying To Win7 Computer
I am running ZCM v10.3 and am preparing to migrate over to Active Directory. When I first setup ZCM, I created a DLU policy for my Windows 7 computers and its been working fine. However, its time to join my Windows 7 computers (running ZCM v10.3) to the AD Domain and I need to disable the DLU for the machines prior to joining the domain.
To do this I tried to exclude my test workstations from the DLU by adding the workstations to the exclusion list for the DLU Policy. My DLU policy is assigned to my Users so I used the "Excluded Workstation List" to attempt to prevent the DLU from applying to the workstation. This didn't work. I also tried the reverse by applying the DLU to the test workstation and adding users to the Exclusion list, but that didn't work either. I updated the version, ran "zac cc" and ran "zac ref bypasscache" but it didnt work.
I reassigned the DLU to all my Users and tried to use the registry to check for the existence and value of hklm\software\novell\zcm\zenlgn\domainlogin=1, but that didnt work either. I updated the version, ran "zac cc" and ran "zac ref bypasscache" but it didnt work.
Actually, the registry keys (DomainLogin and eDIRLogin) didn't exist so i had to manually add it using an AD GPO. I added DomainLogin and eDIRLogin and assign hexadecimal value of 1 to each DWORD via GPO (FYI). At this point I'm not even sure if the values of these keys are supposed to be set automatically upon login or if the admins manually control the values. Its not clear to me from the documentation on the Novell site. (http://www.novell.com/documentation/...stem_admin.pdf, pg 274)
(DLU Policy Filters not working)
I turned on debug by issuing the command: "zac log level debug", and would've attached the log here, but I don't know how. If anyone needs to see the log, please send me a link on how to attach a log and I'll do so.
I've tried so many different settings and combinations but i'm still unable to get consistent results. At some point I was able to get the DLU Policy to show up in the ZCM Agent properties with the status of "Not Applied" or "Not Effective" or something to that effect. That was the first time I was able to log in without the DLU applying. However it wasn't consistent among other machines so i kept testing. As it stands now, I have removed any filters and exclusions and now my test machine is not receiving any DLU policy and it should because I assigned the DLU Policy to my entire user base. I am totally lost.
Any help is appreciated.

DLU policy not applying - Console One won't OK
I've created a DLU policy that has administrator group rights. When I try
to associate it to a user I click OK and the the screen stays (doesn't
close). The button isn't greyed out and an hour glass appears but it does
nothing. I've tried the reverse - associating the policy from the user -
with the same results. Tried deleting and recreating both the user and
policy in different containers.
Dsrepair shows everything is clean and the tree is synced.
Single server tree, netware 5.2 sp7, zen 3.2, console one 3.5
I have other trees exactly the same and do not have this issue....Don't really want to apply anymore patches. We did on one install and it
messed up all our configurations. This is at a school and with the
students now back I can't afford any down time.

Customer site has been using ZEN for years. User package with DLU has always been associated at the OU levels and has been working for the users just fine.
Now we're into a new project that requires the user packages to be associated to the individual users, and a non-DLU package associated to the OUs. What we're seeing is roughly 25% of the users are getting the non-DLU policy, even though their associated and effective policy is supposed to be the DLU one.
Has anyone seen this? Can you tell me why it's happening?
Thanks in advance,

Windows Server 2012 R2 - ALL HF's Failing to install as "Does Not Apply to this computer"
Hi,
A general question about hot fix installs.
I have multiple servers that are all Windows 2012 R2. They do not have internet connections, so I have to install the Hotfixes manually. I download the HF's from the ISO download page (https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/kb/913086) every month. I collect them and install in a bulk install during a release cycle ( a couple times a year). I just realized that NO HF's have installed since JUNE 2014. Every HF that shows up in WindowsServer2012R2 directory fail to install with a message of "The update is not applicable to your computer". Which is fine if that was true, but.... I get this message for every HF from the ISO's since June 2014. NOT one HF thinks it is applicable to my computer. Could that be the case? No HF's apply to my Server 2012 systems since June of 2014?
This is my system info, and below that is the results from attempting to install 95 HF's.

Win7 Computer Config group policy not applying
Hi all: I am having a bit of trouble getting a Computer Configuration group policy to apply in Windows 7 using ZCM 11.2.3. I have two group policies, one for User Configuration settings and the other for Computer Configuration settings. User Config GP is associated with users and Computer Config GP is associated with Workstations. ZCM shows both policies as being successfully applied. Yet, if I run rsop.msc to generate a resultant GP set, all Computer Config settings show up as undefined.
I have used this same technique in XP for many years without issue. I suspect the User Config GP is overwriting all GP settings as it is the last to be applied, but since that policy is ONLY for User Config settings I do not see how. Can someone show me the "errors of my ways"?
Thanks a bunch, Chris.I have an identical policy setup - a policy wherein "Computer configuration" is checked and configured (I don't even touch the User related settings) and is applied to workstations as well as a second policy with "User configuration" checked and configured (as with the computer policy, I don't touch the Computer related policy in this User policy) and applied to users. I set it up that way because I want general settings specific to our environment to exist and be effective for all users including IT staff in the Computer policy. I then want to restrict users within the User Policy. I have no Active Directory.
The computer settings apply intermittently with no rhyme or reason, which makes it difficult to troubleshoot. I have Internet Zone Assignments configured in the Computer policy, so specific users have problems when this policy is not effective which is how I became aware of the problem. I found that I can run "gpudate /force" as the user and the computer policy becomes effective, which is what I do most of the time since it's a quick fix and I can move on to other things. I've tried changing the order the policies are applied. I am considering creating a single policy with both computer and user settings and associating it with users in hopes that it will always apply, but thought I'd check out the forum before doing so. ZCM 11.2.3 and Windows 7. -
11.2.3 security policy not applying
This was in another post felt it need its on post and subject.
11.2.3 has help, but now on device that have 11.2.3 the security policy is
not applying. I have 4 device I'm testing on one was a clean instill of
11.2.3 the other 3 were upgraded, out of all 4 only one the security policy
is applying right. Where would the security policy be store when it is
applied to a device. Is their a better way to apply security policy.
I found that the gpttmpl.inf file is not being copy to the
[C:\Windows\System32\GroupPolicy\Machine\Microsoft\ Windows NT\SecEdit]
folder and did confirm that it is in the zcm meachine cache folder
[C:\Program Files
(x86)\Novell\ZENworks\bin\handlers\CacheFiles\Work stationCache\GroupPolicy\M
achine\Microsoft\Windows NT\SecEdit]. I manual copy it to the SecEdit
folder
logged off back on and then did get the Security Options Settings set
properly.
So why is it not copying it over, the Registry.pol file is and all other
group policy are working (so far). And on the one computer that Security
Options is working right on and running 11.2.3 the gpttmpl.inf is not in
the
[C:\Windows\System32\GroupPolicy\Machine\Microsoft\ Windows NT\SecEdit]
folder ether and I have checked computers that are still on 11.2.0 and the
Security Settings are applied but the gpttmpl.inf file in not in the
[C:\Windows\System32\GroupPolicy\Machine\Microsoft\ Windows NT\SecEdit]. Is
ZEN suppose to copy gpttmpl.inf to the system32 group policy folder and if
so can this be fix? I really need Security Settings to apply.
Hope this makes sense.
And I have this problem on both 32 & 64 bit windows 7
I don't know if this affects Windows XP because I don't have any Security
Settings for XP set.
Thanks
ScottWell I found this in the ZCM troubleshooting guide with the help of google
[When more than one Windows Group policy is applied to a device, the
security settings of the last applied policy are effective on the device.].
I have all ways had device first user last sense 10.3.3 - 11.2.0 and the
security policy did apply, at lease with WIN7. So on my test machines I
change it to user fist device last and now the security policy now works
with 11.2.3, but I still have to have a bundle to run gpupdate /force at
user login. If I done have the bundle to run the device group policy does
not apply sometime, I don't mine to have the bundle to run just why with
win7 is does not apply with out it and XP does with out it.
Also why does it not copy the gpttmpl.inf to

Default Domain Policy Not Applying Settings to Servers or Clients
I have 2008 R2 DC's with a functioning level of 2003. Our domain servers are a mix of 2003, 2008, 2008 R2, and 2012 and our clients are a mix of Windows 7 Pro and Windows 8.1 Pro.
I recently made a change to the Default Domain Policy located at Computer Configuration -> Policies -> Windows Settings -> Security Settings -> Local Policies -> Security Options
For the Security Policy setting called: Network security: Configure encryption types allowed for Kerberos
The change was to enable DES because of a specific need that I have with an application that I work with but enabling DES and leaving the other options such AES unselected caused other applications to not work right. I decided to revert the changes
back to "Not Defined" but those changes did not reflect on the servers even after running the gpupdate /force command.
In order to keep the application working that broke, we enabled all of the encryption levels such as DES, AES, etc. on the server that's running the application via it's Local Security Policy as a temporary fix.
Now, I want to make sure all servers receive the settings from the Default Domain Policy and have their Local Security Policies reflect the "Not Defined" setting but it's not applying. It seems like they worked when I first applied them but
when I try to remove them it does not work.
If I change the setting directly on the Local Security Policy on the server or clients it shows "No minimum" instead of "Not Defined" which I've heard can be fixed by identifying the registry entry for that setting and deleting it...so
help with the location and how to identify that key would also be helpful.
My goal is not to manually have to change servers and clients to revert back to their default settings...I want the Domain policy to apply and override the servers and client's Local Security Policy.
Any help with this would be greatly appreciated and thank you in advance.I have 2008 R2 DC's with a functioning level of 2003. Our domain servers are a mix of 2003, 2008, 2008 R2, and 2012 and our clients are a mix of Windows 7 Pro and Windows 8.1 Pro.

We needed to implement a similar scenario a few years ago (when we introduced Windows7 into our estate).
We had an SAP/NetWeaver implementation which always worked on WinXP, but failed on Win7.
We had to enable the DES ciphers, since those were disabled by default in Win7. We discovered that we also needed to enable all the other ciphers (those which are enabled by default[not configured]).
i.e., when we changed the setting from "Not Configured", enabled DES, and left the RC4/AES stuff untouched by us, the RC4/AES stuff attracted a status of disabled.
So, we had to set the DES ciphers to Enabled, and, also set the RC4/AES ciphers to Enabled - this gave us the "resultant" enablement of the default stuff and the needed change/addition of DES.
When you set a GP setting "back to Not Configured", depending upon the setting *AND* the individual Windows feature itself - one of two things will happen:
a) the feature will "revert" to default behaviour
b) the feature will retain the current configured behaviour but becomes un-managed
In classic Group Policy terms, condition (b) above is often referred to as "tattooing", i.e., the last GP setting remains in effect even though GPMC/RSOP/etc does not reveal that to be the case.
(This is also a really good example of not doing this sort of stuff in the DDP. It could have borked your whole domain :)
What I'd suggest, is that you re-enable your ciphers for KRB settings again - this time, enable all the ciphers that would normally be "default", let that replicate around, and allow time for domain members to action it.
Then, set the setting back to Not Configured. This way, the "last" settings issued by GP will be those you want to remain as the "legacy".
Note: the GP settings reference s/sheet, has this to say:
Network security: Configure encryption types allowed for Kerberos
This policy setting allows you to set the encryption types that Kerberos is allowed to use.
If not selected, the encryption type will not be allowed. This setting may affect compatibility with client computers or services and applications. Multiple selections are permitted.
This policy is supported on at least Windows 7 or Windows Server 2008 R2.

Group Policy not applying after logoff \ logon
We've noticed during testing an issue around Local Group Policy applied via ZCM...
- user A logs in, policy applies correctly (folder redirection, taskbar settings etc)
- user A logs off
- user B logs in, policy applies correctly
- user B logs off
- user A logs in again, policy does not apply
The only way to get policy to apply again for user A is to either reboot or delete the local profile for the user manually
A few other details...
- Windows 7 SP1 Enterprise x86
- DLU Policy applied (non volatile user)
- user does not have admin rights (in the Users+ group)gshaw0,

I have a Windows 2008 R2 Domain Controllers and have a Policy to put a specify wallpaper, eventuality i have to change the Wallpaper, this setting applied sucesfully in Windows xp and Windows 7 workstations, but not applied in Windows 8 workstations even
if i run gpupdate /forcé,
Best Regards,
Thank youHi,
Thanks for posting in the forum.
Before going further, would you please let me know how did you configure the Group Policy setting to deploy the wallpaper? Have you configured some settings to limit the scope the GPO applying?
If all Windows 8 machines failed to receive the GPO settings? In order to narrow down the cause of the issue, I suggest we could try to collect the following information for troubleshooting.
GPMC.log
==================
a. On domain controller, click Start ->Run, type GPMC.MSC, it will load the GPMC console.
b. Right click on "Group Policy Result" and choose wizard to generate a report for the problematic computer and user account (please place appropriately). (Choose computer and select the proper
user in the wizard)
c. Right click
the resulting group policy result and click the "Save Report…" => save report to save the report to a HTML file.
Once we get the report, please check if the settings have been applied to the target correctly.
In addition, would you please let me know whether you have imported the latest Windows 8 Administrative Templates to the Windows Server 2008 DC? If not, please try to download and import it.
Then try to configure the wallpaper GPO settings again to see if it could help.
For details, please refer to the following articles.

Currently we are running ZfD 7 and Netware 6.5 and have recently upgraded all our workstations to Windows XP Service Pack 2. Our tree structure consists of an OU for each school level, elementary, middle, and high, and an OU for each school in that respective level. Example:
Elementary
West Main
South Main
Middle
Brown Middle
The current contents in each School OU have users, groups, policies, ect. Previously policy was applied by a workstation policy package that distributed all policies: user, machine, and security which were associated with the School OU. Now we split the policy into workstation packages and a user packages. The goal was to have the workstation apply the machine and security policy and the user policy to apply user settings and create dynamic the local user account.
The workstation policy remains persistent on the workstation while the user policy creates a local user (non-volatile) and applies the user policy from a server path depending on group membership. We have four different user policy packages: Student, Teacher, Specialist and Technology. Each with there own group policy user configuration. Everyone in our Tree has the appropriate permissions to access the policies. We configure the user policy package as follows:
Policies Windows XP
Enabled Dynamic Local User
Enabled Windows Group Policy
Workstation Manager
Network Location
\\serverpath
Checked User Configuration
Policy Schedule
User Desktop is active
Advanced Schedule
Impersonation
Interactive User
Associations
Groups (Teachers, Students)
I can get the workstation policy to apply with no problem. The problem comes when a users logs on. It doesnt matter if a new user is being created or if they are simply just switching users. User group policy doesnt apply randomly. The strange thing is it does copy down to the machine. If I connect to the admin share on a newly imaged workstation (with no policy applied) and open c:\windows\system32\ you see the creation of GroupPolicy.Usercache Folder and it copies to the GroupPolicy Folder which is were it applies policy from. Also you can see policy dynamically changing if different users logs on. The Registry.pol updates in the c:\windows\system32\ GroupPolicy.Usercache\User folder and c:\windows\system32\ GroupPolicy \User Sometimes group policy applies and sometimes it does not. When a user logs on you see the policy that was copied down apply. For example the run option is taken away from the start menu. During the log on process this remains in effect but when the process completes its almost like policy is take away. When this occurs I can run WMSCHED.Exe and reapply the user policy and it will apply sometimes. I tried applying group policy through both groups and organizational units. Both with the same results. I was wondering if anyone has had issues with applying group policy with ZEN or if I am doing this incorrectly. Any help would be much appreciated. Thanks.rscurr,

Windows WiFi Import Policy not applying
Quoting from the following TechNet article:
https://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/dn818903.aspx?f=255&MSPPError=-2147217396
Additionally, for devices that run Windows 8.1 and later, you can import a Wi-Fi configuration profile that was previously exported
to a file.
It is not quite clear to me what "devices that run Windows 8.1" are supposed to include. I took it to include Windows 8.1 (Enterprise)
clients with the Intune Agent installed. However when I create an Windows WiFi Import policy and apply this to a group which contains a windows 8.1 notebook the policy is not applied.
It does not seem to be that the policy
failed, it does not seem to be applied at all. When checking the policy log it states that 4 policies have been found an applied, which are the default set: Hardware inventory, Software inventory, Intune Center Policy and Intune Agent policy.
So is this supposed to work?
On a related note: The article linked above states you can export the Wlan policy to include in a Windows WiFi import policy with the following command:
netsh wlan export profile MyConnection
Is this not supposed to have an added key=clear argument? I understood that the password encryption used in the export (without key=clear) is only decryptable by the machine on which the export was made. But I may misremember..Hello Andre,

This works when you manage devices with Win 8.1 via OMA-DM agent. This policy won't work for Win 8.1 devices with Intune
("fat") client.

Power Manager - no new profiles, group policy not applying
Hi there!
Having an issue with power manager (latest version, downloaded today) on Vista on a T61. The first problem is that I cannot create a power profile. If I hit New on the advanced page and fill all the stuff out, the named power plan does not show up. It's like I never did it.
The second issue is that group policy doesn't seem to apply, either. I tried to create a new power policy through AD using the GPO available for download. All the settings are filled out, it's named, and it doesn't show up.
For those concerned that the group policy is mucking up the ability to create a new one through the UI, that was the behavior before the group policy was set up.
rsop.msc shows definitively that the policy is applying to this machine.
Does anyone have any hints?

DLU policy not allowing user to unlock
ZCM 11.2.2
SLES11SP2
eDir 8.7
Win7 x86 and x64 workstations
I am currently deploying a test environment to about 6 Win7 machines - a mix of x86 ans x64 machines.
On several of the x86 machines if it locks due to inactivity the currently logged on user is not being allowed to unlock the workstation. Error received is "This computer is locked. Only the logged on user can unlock". It is not across the board but just a few. We are getting the Novell login box but it will not unlock even though it is the same user that originally logged on prior to locking.
If the policy is removed from that machine it seems to function fine.
I have set the NIC power management to not allow the computer to turn the NIC off to save power and the result is the same.
Any guidance would be appreciated.I don't have the foggiest on how DLU could relate to this issue.
I've never head that before.
I would recommend also asking in the Client Forums.
You may want to try disabling all Power Mgmt Features.
Have you tried changing it over to the local Windows User to try and
unlock the account? ( I presume you can do this in Win7, that used to
work for XP when this happened.)

Password policy not applying properly
I have set password policy for my domain that
Maximum age: 60days
Minimum age is: 45days
but I get messages every week that passwords would expire in 4 days
I checked using rsop.msc and policy seems to be correctly applied.
what could be the problem?> Maximum age: 60days
> but I get messages every week that passwords would expire in 4 days
If your GPO is applied correctly, this simply means that the last
password change was 56 days ago.
> I checked using rsop.msc and policy seems to be correctly applied.
On the client? Your user is not a local user on the client, but most
probably a domain user. So you need to check RSoP.msc on the PDC
emulator, not on the client.
> what could be the problem?
You forgot to link your password policy to the domain, and after doing
so, make sure you move it upwards above the existing "default domain
policy". In the security filter, add at least "Domain Controllers" -
better leave "Authenticated Users". And finally, do not block
inheritance on the "domain controllers" OU.
