Group Policy for Terminal Server not working

[myrddinbach]

This is the setup:

1. Windows 2003 domain
2. Windows 2000 TS server (for simplicity we'll call him TS-Server)
3. TS-Server is in TSOU
4. Created a Global group TS-Users which consists of users from
various OU's
5. Created and linked a Group Policy object in TSOU
a. This policy has loopback enabled set to "Replace"
b. This policy has User Configuration/Windows Componets/Terminal
Services/Start a program on Connection enabled and set to run a
specific program
c. Under security filter I added the computer account and the TS-
Users Global group

When a user from TS-Users connects to TS-Server the policy is not
applied and the user gets a normal desktop. I have also tried exact
set up above with putting in the working directory - still does not
get applied.

Does this maybe not work because Im using a Windows 2000 TS server?

Re: Group Policy for Terminal Server not working

This policy is not available in Windows 2000 and hence the Windows 2000 TS
machine is not recognizing the policy pushed down by the Windows 2003 DC.
