Thanks from here too! We have been seeing some weird stuff in Group Policy on and off for a while including some userenv errors so I decided to run GPOTool in our environment. Found some GPOs with mismatches between the DS and SYSVOL. I haven't tried to fix them yet (Change Control and all that), but at least we have an idea of where some of these random errors might be coming from.
According to our TAM (he happened to be here working on another issue) we should be able to make a minor change to the affected GPO and let it replicate which should overwrite the DS copy. -Brian -----Original Message----- From: Craig Gauss [mailto:gau...@rhahealthcare.org] Sent: Thursday, March 12, 2009 2:01 PM To: NT System Admin Issues Subject: RE: Userenv errors Thanks for the GPOtool pointer. Found an issue with one of our DCs.

That error will show up if the computer accounts don't have proper permissions. Run GPOtool to check the GPOs in that domain, it will identify a lot of problems right there without a lot of manual checking. There are a lot of other things to check but start there. Gpresult from an affected client can also be illuminating -----Original Message----- From: Craig Gauss [mailto:gau...@rhahealthcare.org] Sent: Thursday, March 12, 2009 5:45 AM To: NT System Admin Issues Subject: Userenv errors I have been searching Google for the past few days and havent really found a good solution. Wondering if anyone on the list has ever had issues like this. We have a large amount of workstations with the following error: Windows cannot access the file gpt.ini for GPO The file must be present at the location <>. (). Group Policy processing aborted.
