OK, I am applying the setting to the group I created which is in the OU... I am right 
clicking the ou (i.e. Matts OU), going to properties, 'Group Policy' tab, then selecting 
the policy (i.e. Matts OU Group Policy) and clicking "edit".

(By the way....Thanks for your time and patience Curt... I really appreciate it... 
This thing has be bugging the hell out of me....)

Ok.... You seem like a really bright guy, maybe it would help if I give you all the 
backround info, and then I listen to your method to doing this.... W2k box is named 
"Server"... thats the PDC for the domain "mattmontalto".  PC #1 is named "matthew". 
Target user is "mmontalto"

ACTIVE DIR STRUCTURE:

I have created and OU called "Matts OU".  Under that is "matthew" (the physical computer), 
the group "Matts OU", and the user "mmontalto".

The user, "mmontalto" is a 'member of' "Domain Users" & "Matts OU"....

Now, under the GP for Matts OU, we have "Matts OU Group Policy", under which I have 
enabled BOTH "Automatically log off users when time expires", and "Automatically 
log off users when time expires (Locally)"...  

Do you think that because they are BOTH enabled, they are conflicting?  

Hey Curt.... Sorry to make this such a huge post, but I thought it might be better 
if we were both looking at the same page.... So I, again, thank you very much for 
your time, help and patience.... Like I said before.... This thing is driving me 
crazy.... Thanks ...
