Hi There,

Is there a way to re-create the default domain policy and the default
domainconroller policy's?
When i try to open then through administrative tools, i get the file not
found error... That could be right because i miss the files : GPT00001.DOM
and GPT00001.inf..
I recently discoverd that the sysvol directory was missing.I re-created the
structure like ms says..
I have deleted the default domaincontrollers policy, the one that wasnt
found anymore.. And created a new Default Domaincontroller Policy ..
The same for Default domain security policy , i deleted him and recreated it
withing AD Users and Computers.
But when i try to open it throught the mmc it says it cannot found it..
I can see local group policy on the server . I can manage group policy
through active directory users and computers...

Any ideas would be great... and if someone can tell me how the sysvol dir
can dissapear?

THx

C:\WINDOWS\security\templates\policies\gpt00001.dom
C:\WINDOWS\security\templates\policies\planning\gpt00000.dom
