GPO Loopback processing of user policies started failing
- We have a Server 2003 domain with only Server 2003 DCs. The affected clients are XP.
There is no Windows 2000 or NT involved and there is only one domain.
I noticed some user settings for a steadystate gpo started failing. It has user settings that we want to apply only when the users are logged into specific computers, so the policy is applied to the computer's OU with loopback processing enabled in the GPO.
I checked logs on the XP client and I see:
Event 1086. Windows cannot do loopback processing for downlevel or local users. Loopback processing will be disabled.
I was not logging in with a local user account. Why is this faling now? I did a Google search and found old info referring to using NT and Windows 2000 http://www.microsoft.com/technet/support/ee/transform.aspx?ProdName=Windows+Operating+System&ProdVer=5.2&EvtID=1086&EvtSrc=Userenv&LCID=1033
(This does not apply to us).
It used to work fine. What could be the cause now?

- Howdie!
Are you in the process of migrating the user/machine from one domain to another? Are there other events logged in event viewer?
Cheers,

Microsoft MVP - Group Policy (http://www.frickelsoft.net/blog) - There is no other domain involved. The computers and users are on the same domain and have always been on the same domain.
The only reason I checked the group policy events log and saw the 1086 event is because the user policies in the gpo were not working reliably. Sometimes they would work and then they not work the next time. I checked the log when it wasn't working and then saw the event 1086.
I will have to wait until Monday to check the logs again to see if there are other error events. Hi MyGposts,
According to your description, I understand that the GPO Loopback processing is not working on your XP client.
If I have misunderstand you, please do not hesitate to let me know.
To isolate the issue, please collect the following information for research.
1. Enabled UserEnv logging on the workstation via the following KB article:
221833 How to enable user environment debug logging in retail builds of Windows
http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;EN-US;221833Set UserEnvDebugLevel to 0x00030002, the most verbose details are logged in the Userenv.log file.
The log file is written to the %Systemroot%\Debug\UserMode\Userenv.log file.2. Logon as an Domain Admin account, click start and run “cmd”, Enter. Type in “gpresult /Z >c:\gpresult.txt ” and Enter.
Please use Windows Live SkyDrive (http://www.skydrive.live.com/) to upload the Userenv.log and gpresult.txt file and then give us the download address.

This posting is provided "AS IS" with no warranties, and confers no rights.I am unable to get gpresult when the computers have the problem. The message says the user does not have RSOP data even though the user is a domain admin and admin on the computer.
- Hi MyGposts,
Could you please let us know the error message WORD by WORD when you run the gpresult /z with administrative privilege token?
However, you may try rejoin this problematic computer into domain to see if the issue persists.

This posting is provided "AS IS" with no warranties, and confers no rights. - It simply says "The user "domain\xxx" does not have RSOP data."
It is a short one line message with no further details.
It is not a problem with one single computer. One of the problem PCs in the OU was freshly imaged and joined to the domain today and others have been on the domain for some time. Hi MyGposts,
Thank you for your response.
To isolate the root cause of this issue, please confirm the following information:
1. How many DCs in your environment? Please run a “repadmin /showreps >c:\repadmin.txt” from your DC.
2. Does the problematic client point the correct DNS server in your domain?
3. Can you access the SYSVOL and NetLogon folder of your domain on the problematic client? Eg: Try access \\domain.com\SYSVOL\ and \\domain.com\NETLOGON
4. If that succeeds let’s take a network capture of the failure by following these steps:
Microsoft Network Monitor 3.3
Please capture the network packets on the client computer, In Windows system, you can install Netmon3.3 to capture the network packet:
1) Download and Install the Netmon3.3 on the computers:Microsoft Network Monitor 3.3
http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?displaylang=en&FamilyID=983b941d-06cb-4658-b7f6-3088333d062f2) Log onto the machines, right-click the Netmon icon and select Run as Administrator to launch NetMon3.3.
3) In the Microsoft Network Monitor 3.3 window, click Create a new capture tab.
4) In the new tab, select all the Network Adapters in the Select Networks window.
5) Press F10 to start NetMon on all machines.
6) Perform the “gpupdate /force” again to reproduce the issue.
7) After that, go back to the NetMon window and press F11 to stop the NetMon.
8) Press Ctrl+S to save the Netmon files and upload them to the following space:
5. Run GPMC’s group policy result report on the domain controller for and send the report to us for analyzing.
1) Download GPMC snap-in from the following link.
2) http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?displaylang=en&FamilyID=0a6d4c24-8cbd-4b35-9272-dd3cbfc81887
3) Install GPMC snap-in on your domain controller.
4) Start GPMC via typing “gpmc.msc” into “Start Menu” and “Run”, right click the Group Policy Results, chose Group Policy Results Wizard, select which server name and user name that you want to run.
5) Save the report file to a html file.
6. Please use Windows Live SkyDrive (http://www.skydrive.live.com/) to upload the netmon, gpreport.html and repadmin.txt file and then give us the download address.I’m glad to provide further assistance as soon as I get the information from you. Thanks for your cooperation again.
Best Regards,
Wilson JiaI did the repadmin and the results say all attempts were successful.
The DNS is correct and is automatically supplied by DHCP.
Unfortunately, we have a circular problem because the main purpose of the policies is to restrict user access to the computer and those policies are partially working meaning we can only access the command line or install software if we login to the computers using the local administrator account. All domain user accounts have a limited desktop and if we disable the restricting GPO, then we can't test if they are working.- Hi MyGposts,
Could you please let us know the exact GPO setting which is not applied to the client? Have you run the Group policy result report on the domain contreller? If so, what's the result?
Best Regards,
Wilson Jia
