Citrix XenDesktop - some VDI sessions not picking up GPO, is duplicate DN at fault

[Davit2005]

Just wondered if anyone has seen this before.

 

Certain VDI sessions are not picking up any GPO's and when noticing this I check the folllowing registry key

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Group Policy\State\Machine and the value: Distinguished-Name, the computername is the same as the Catalog´s Master VM´s computername, and the OU is that of the Master VM. When running a “gpupdate /force” the Distinguished-Name is immediately changing to the correct computer-name and the correct OU of the Pooled machine.

 

Any ideas how to fix.

 

One specific session seems to have the problem all the time while others are jus intermitent.

Bump anyone

It appears for some reason the time was out on the VDI's that had the problem which seemed to be causing Kerberos issues and GPO's not updating.

 

Not a proper fix I know but I have created a new version with an increased kerberos time to 70mins to account for summertime changes which has allowed GPO to work.

 

All seems OK so far.
