When I go to look at the operations manager and look under the RID i get an
error under operations master. But it shows the server and domain name under
where i can transfer the role. Under PDC and Infrastructure it also displays
the the server name in both operations master and role transfer. My question
is how come I get an error under the RID tab but no where else. I tried to
switch the roles hoping that would elminate the error msg but to no avail.
Its a Windows 2000 SP4 environment and 1 DC. Also I have noticed that my
GPO's are acting funny lately meaning I can't edit them or add new ones,
could this be part of my RID problem? Please help.
 
Sounds like you have a rid problem and possibly a sysvol problem.

Try running dcdiag. Look for fail, error and warning errors.

If you don't have the tools installed load them from your install disk.

d:\i386\adminpak.msi (Server tools for remote management of servers)
d:\support\tools\setup.exe (Server Utilities)

Copy the following to a cmd file and run look for error, fail and warn
within the reports. Post any errors you can't figure out. Make sure you
modify DC_Name to the name of a dc in your domain.

@echo off

c:
cd \
cd "program files\support tools"

del c:\dcdiag.log
dcdiag /e /c /v /s:DC_Name /f:c:\dcdiag.log
start c:\dcdiag.log

Check that replication is working.
