OK... I have been reading through countless articles to figure out if
I should be troubleshooting the DC or something else. Let me fill you
in:

AD 2003 SP2, two DC's. Only one DC getting the event errors. Errors
started appearing after I applied HP's Proliant Service Pack (drivers)
to fix a BSOD issue I was getting with their NIC teaming software.

Since then, I am getting a pile of Userenv errors and I am at a loss
as to where I should be focusing my efforts. Here is what I have done
so far:

- Ensured the HP teamed interface is at the top of the NIC binding
order.
- Ensured that I can make a change to the GPO via GPMC and get no
errors
- Ensured that once I make those changes, the GPO updates in the
\Policies folders on each DC
- FRS and DS logs are nice and clean (above test shows FRS working
correcltly)
- DCDIAG and NETDIAG come back nice and clean on both DCs
- Ensured that the privileges on the SYSVOL matched the privileges
from the DC that is not having an issue.
- Ensured that the privileges on the SYSVOL match that of another
working AD2003 install.
- Ensured that Computer and User objects have Read privs to the SYSVOL
folder.
- Ensured that I can access \policies using unc paths like \\FQDN
\sysvol and \\DC-01\sysvol

Now what I haven't done is:

- use the /PurgeMupCache due it being only a temp fix
- break the NIC team and run it with only one NIC enabled
- been able to understand from KB842804 if the WaitForNetwork is a PC
or DC "fix"

My greatest frustration is trying to determine exactly why only one DC
is reporting the error. Am I to assume that workstations that are
trying to read the GPOs from this DC are getting an Access Denied and
it's being logged every 5 minutes? The fact that it is every 5
minutes makes me suspect the DC is having a problem but it can browse
it's own c:\windows\sysvol structure just fine.

Thanks for taking the time to read.
Kevin
