Essential Troubleshooting Tools
After you have verified that the core configuration and infrastructure required for proper Group Policy processing are functional and available, the next step is to use the Group Policy troubleshooting tools to try to further isolate the problem. The best place to start is with tools that report on RSoP for a given computer and user. The two main tools for doing this are the Group Policy Results Wizard and the Gpresult command-line utility. Other useful tools include Gpotool, which can help you verify the health of the GPC and GPT, and Group Policy Monitor, which allows you to centralize and automate collection of Group Policy Results reports.
