AD Permissions problem with new server
Newly joined Windows Server 2008 R2 computer to a newly set up domain -- when logged in as a new (domain) user (with domain admin permissions) -- can't run anything. You get this message:
"Windows cannot access the specified device, path or file. You may not have appropriate permissions to access the item."
If you log in as a local machine user - everything runs.
I've never seen this problem before.

try giving the domain user permission on C drive and other drives, also note that you may not have setup a roaming profile and the profile is not loading....

Yes but this doesn't make sense - you don't HAVE to use roaming profiles with domain workstations and as for drive permissions -- howcome I don't have this with another 100 PC domain I can add brand new computers to with no problem .. !!

The problem seems to be with the active directory and group policy -- it just isn't being picked up by the newly joined server.

Problem lay with VM images -- needed to run sysprep WITH "generalize" as security tokens were conflicting and AD just didn't like the imposter machines (vm's). Sysprep with generalize .. THEn join domains, etc. - all good. Thanks all.
