it what they mean by file though...

As Marcin already wrote - the Group Policy has files on the SYSVOL share that is hosted on all DCs. In order to apply GPs correctly, the clients needs to read these files from SYSVOL. You can check that in SYSVOL in the "Policies" folder.

I guess there's a problem on the client as the Group Policy you specified in your original posting is the Default Domain Policy (GUID 31B2F340-016D-11D2-945F-00C04FB984F9). That's why I was asking which event got logged for further troubleshooting.

cheers,

Florian
