Group Policy Wont Apply
Put a few new PC's out on the floor today and on after rollout they did not receive map drives or printers. this is usually done with group policy.
We are running server 2008R2 for domain controllers and the end users have
When I attempted to run gpupdate /force I receive the following error:
The processing of Group Policy failed. Windows attempted to read the file \\domain.root\SysVol\domai n.root\Pol icies\{B86 483ED-285A -438A-9B17 -9011BDE2F 16D}\gpt.i
ni from a domain controller and was not successful. Group Policy settings may no
t be applied until this event is resolved. This issue may be transient and could
be caused by one or more of the following:
a) Name Resolution/Network Connectivity to the current domain controller.
b) File Replication Service Latency (a file created on another domain controller
has not replicated to the current domain controller).
c) The Distributed File System (DFS) client has been disabled.
Computer policy could not be updated successfully. The following errors were enc
ountered:

Are these new pc's located under the right OU in AD?
ASKER
Correct the new PC's are loaded under the correct OU. same OU as the previous. the GPO for drives is a user policy. and the user has not changed location.
Are the policies created for a group of users or plain authenticated users?
