SYMPTOMS
========
After you create a system policy for Windows 95-based client computers, you may
find that the policy is not implemented even though the Config.pol file is
placed in %systemroot%\system32\repl\import\scripts (the Netlogon share) on
every domain controller and users have adequate permissions to access the
policy. A protocol analysis trace taken with Network Monitor shows the policy
file being opened and read without an error, however, no element of the policy
will take effect on the Windows 95 client computer.
CAUSE
=====
This behavior can occur if User Profiles are not enabled.
RESOLUTION
==========
To resolve this issue, enable User Profiles. To do so, follow these steps:
1. Click Start, point to Settings, and then click Control Panel.
2. Double-click Passwords, and then click the User Profiles tab.
3. Click "Users can customize their preferences and desktop settings. Windows
switches to your personal settings whenever you log in," and then click OK.
4. Click Yes when you are prompted to restart your computer.
