Amanda,
Alas, there is no "SLA" on public newsgroups--at least, not that I know of.
But, with respect to your problem, yes, the inability for some DCs to enable
SYSVOL replication will prevent clients from getting GP correctly. Every DC
needs to have shared Netlogon and SYSVOL. If they are not, you will have GP
problems because clients read GP settings from the SYSVOL portion of a GPO.
So, your first order of business is to fix FRS replication between all your
DCs. There are a lot of KB articles on FRS problems, but I would recommend
starting with this one:
