GPO and duplicate login scripts running

Finally finished coding the VBS login script for the 2003 mixed mode domain. My domain GPO has this script set for the members of "Domain Users" (not "authenticated users"). However, I personally have to run the "test" version of this script for ongoing changes to code and other procedures we are trying to add to the script. The problem is that my user account ends up running both the production script and the testing script.

Here's what I've tried:
1) Created a unique GPO just for my account, assigned test script, set precedence to high. No luck... both run.
2) Removed my user account from the "Domain Users" group and set "Domain Admins" as primary group. No luck... both run.
3) GPUPDATE /FORCE on both the 2003 DC and my XPProSP2 workstation, no luck...both run.

Help!

I never became familiar with Group Policy when it was introduced years ago so this new MMC has helped educate me to some degree.

I don't see security or security groups on the GPO or the "link" to the GPO in this tool. I've ....

[UPDATE]

Ok... I RDP'd to the server and now I see what you are talking about. I walked through your instructions and was able to run just the one script. Odd, however, that this item would be a little hidden in the GPMC.

Thanks

I know what you mean - in the GPMC interface it's the Delegation tab. Not very intuitive.
