Check both of these posts that have multiple solutions to your problem that you posted. I think the dfspurge should work.

So the first one you sent me I went to and checked out and noticed that the gpt.ini file should have the correct premissions on it, I am not to sure what permissions are needed to stop getting this error
You should have authenicated users listed as read and apply. The DCs will need the same permissions.

Give the Authenicated users Full Control and DCs too. Can you post the Event ID you are getting to. Have you tried the dfs purge option?

Check this out. This will show you the solution. What OS are you getting the errors on SBS, Standard, or Enterprise? 2003, 2000, or XP?
