[Samba] GPO's in OU's not working

The issue was me and my limited experience with group policy.  Apparently
you can't apply a computer policy to users, nor a user policy to
computers.  It does work if I assign folder redirection to users as it is a
user policy.  It does work if I assign offline files to computers as it is
a computer policy.  Thanks all for all the help and answers.
