Re: Group Policy Errors

Pls disregard below - following instructions for the wrong identifyer byte
0x2 instead of 0x4b8. Paper 260715 then indicates that the "Rename
Administrator Account" security policy should be disabled or set to a account
name that is already in use. Not necessarily sure that I am at the level in
our hierchy with enough auth to comply - I am checking with our Standards
guys... Papers 259576 and 258595 do not appear to specifically address this
issue.

I am on a XP Pro station and am within a network that has both XP servers
and 2K servers.

Larry

after changing the DWORD value from 1 to 2 as suggested - the expected
results noted within the inst. were not observed, the find /i
%systemroot%\security\logs\winlogon.log returned:
----------- C:\WINDOWS\SECURITY\LOGS\WINLOGON.LOG

At this point the isolation process could no longer be followed as the next
command would, of necessity, require a null value search or to search for
"account name". None the less, thank you for your reply...

Have followed all of the available self-help documentation available for
this
issue. Un-reg-ed and re-reg-ed the suggested .dll files and reloaded SP2.
The white papers on this say the problem was fixed by SP2.

Receiving 1085 event indicating that:
The Group Policy client-side extension Security failed to execute. Please
look for any errors reported earlier by that extension.

This is in conjunction with a SCECLI error 1202 that indicates:
Security policies were propagated with warning. 0x4b8 : An extended error
has occurred.

There have been no further attempts at assistance by e-mailing Microsoft
Contact US [msconus@xxxxxxxxxxxxx]. ...other than a canned reply telling
me
to go here...

This problem is occuring at a Non-Profit Health Care Organization. Any
guidance or assistance in the resolution of this issue would be
appreciated.
We are searching for another solution to a different problem and the
vendor
is reluctant to take control of that different issue until this one is
resolved.
