You know, posting to every Win2000 ng you can find just pisses people
off. What, on earth, does this have to do with group policy, Windows
update or DNS???????????
Hank, with all due respect, I can excuse John's cross posting far better
than if he had multi-posted in different groups, and the language you used.
As for what this could have to do with Group Policy, two years ago I had a
DC eating my proverbial lunch because the Netlogon server would not start
and the server would not manually start. It turned out to be group policy on
the Domain Controller policy, the netlogon service was disabled in the
policy, and the security was set to deny access to everyone.
I fixed the security and set the policy to Automatic, problem solved. At
this point I cannot say that this is John's problem because I don't have the
data to support a resolution.
You never know who has the answer, if you don't exactly know where to post
it, get it out to as many groups he might think is relevant.
