Work Folders - Specific Group Policy's that are needed to satisfy domain client security level

$

Hi All,

We have Work Folders successfully set up on our domain. A non domain joined client can connect and gain access to their work folder share without issue.

I am now in the process of setting up domain connected laptops that will be used by staff. These laptop will have restrictions on them and the users that logon will not have admin privileges.

The work folder server has the device policies of:

  • Encrypt Work Folders
  • Automatically lock screen, and require a password

We are using Windows 8.1 enterprise clients, with the latest patches. If I turn off the "Automatically lock screen...." policy, a domain user can successfully sync their work. If I turn it back on they get the below error:

"Make sure that your account is an administrator on the PC and that all administrator accounts on this PC have a password."

I have set the group polices that I believe might effect this message, but have yet to get a successful sync. Could someone give me the exact group policies I would need to set for client to meet the security requirements.

  • Minimum password length of 6
  • Autolock screen set to be 15 minutes or less
  • Maximum password retry of 10 or less
