I've done quite a bit of searching, but never found anything with a
solution, and only a couple with the same problem.
Here's my environment: Windows 2000 Active Directory single domain, native
mode. 5 domain controllers. FRS is good, no errors. No errors using dcdiag
or gpotool. About 1000 desktops, all but a few are running Windows 2000 Pro
SP4, patched fairly well with my WSUS server.
Somewhat randomly, a small percentage of workstations can't run simple login
scripts associated with GPOs. Sometimes the workstation will run it,
sometimes not. 80% of all workstations have no issues. The errow shows up
like this on the PC:
"UserInit Error 1000 Windows could not execute lawsonfix2.bat due to the
following error: Access is denied."
It's not always the same batch file (and not the same GPO). When it starts
happening on a workstation, it'll continue to happen, generally, more often
than not, on 2 or 3 scripts out of 5 or 8 that could be running. All
workstations are Windows 2000 Pro SP4.
They have rights to the script itself (since quite often they run it), so
the "Access Denied" message puzzles me.
Replication seems peachy, according to FRS, gpotool, and dcdiag. If I
reimage the PC, the problem will go away, at least for a while.
I've read dozens of Knowledge Base Articles and the like, but none have
really helped.
Any input would be appreciated - thanks.
