How come if I run AD Users and Computers (or GPMC) on my workstation I can't see all the GPOs? For example, when I look in User Configuration-->Windows Settings, all I see is "Remote Installation Services." But if I open up AD U&C directly on a Domain Controller and open that same node, I see several sub-objects: Scripts, Security Settings, Folder Redirection, and Internet Explorer Maintenance.
How can I make my workstation see all the stuff that's really there?
Thanks,
Rob

Have a look at this thread.
Let me know how you get off, as I never got round to sorting this before leaving the company... |

| This may sound stupid, but do you perhaps have the little checkbox marked that says "only show configured objects" (or something similar?) |

Paul--I looked at the thread you suggested. Registering the ieaksie.dll got me the IE Maintenance settings. I still can't see any of the other stuff, though--Scripts, Security Settings, Folder Redirection. Must be some other dll that needs registering.
Willem--That check box is only for the Administrative Templates node, so it wouldn't affect the stuff I'm looking for here.
Thanks,
Rob |

Rob,
Did you install a custom version of IE6? i.e., one off a PC magazine, or customised with IEAK?
Even if you think you didn't, check Help\About in case. I think it must be a preconfigured setting in IE -as most people aren't seeing this behaviour. |

Hi Paul--
No, I put this PC together myself, from parts. And I've never in my life run IEAK. I did check Help\About, just in case. It says Version 6.0.2900.2096IC, Product ID:55736-OEM-7376237-04427, Update Versions:; SP2;
I'm wondering if there's some dll or other file on the DCs that isn't on my workstation. I even installed XP SP2 about 45 minutes ago, just in case that would help. It didn't.

It's a little weird why those .dll's aren't registered.
I wonder why that's the case??
Nice pointer Darren!!  |

It means it's an OEM copy of Windows, and the OEM probably did it  |

Hello again--
Well, if the OEM is me, then maybe I somehow did it. But I installed XP on this computer from our open license and have only upgraded it with updates from MS.
More importantly, though, I've got another missing piece: I can't see User Configuration-->Windows Settings-->Security Settings. Security Settings is just missing, like the others before. How do I figure out which .dll needs to be registered in order to fix it?
Thanks,
Rob |
