when looking in event viewer I see the following error,

"Windows cannot determine the user or computer name. (The
RPC server is unavailable. ). Group Policy processing
aborted.

For more information, see Help and Support Center at
http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/events.asp.

I go to the web site and it tells me to go to a dos
prompt and type "netdiag". This is not a recognized exe
or batch file. Where do I get this from???
 
I wish you gave us the event id. any way, this is quotation form
http://www.ChicagoTech.net
Event ID 1053 - Userenv

Symptoms: your w2k/xp clients may receive this Event ID 1053 - Windows
cannot determine the user or computer name. (<error description>). Group
Policy processing aborted. Or error: "The specified user does not exist."

Resolutions: 1. Make sure that your internal DNS server is the one authority
for the domain you are logging in to.
2. Verify the DNS Settings. This will occur if your DNS server is unable to
resolve information about your domain.
3. Delete the problem computer from DNS records and re-create it.
