The Dc has these two errors 1030 and 1058 in the application log:

Event Type: Error
Event Source: Userenv
Event Category: None
Event ID: 1030
Date: 1/24/2005
Time: 20:57:44
User: NT AUTHORITY\SYSTEM
Computer: SOCRATES
Description:
Windows cannot query for the list of Group Policy objects. Check the event
log for possible messages previously logged by the policy engine that
describes the reason for this.

Event Type: Error
Event Source: Userenv
Event Category: None
Event ID: 1058
Date: 1/24/2005
Time: 21:00:39
User: OSULLIVAN\bosully
Computer: SOCRATES
Description:
Windows cannot access the file gpt.ini for GPO
CN={31B2F340-016D-11D2-945F-00C04FB984F9},CN=Policies,CN=System,DC=osullivans,DC=local.
The file must be present at the location
<\\osullivans.local\sysvol\osullivans.local\Policies\{31B2F340-016D-11D2-945F-00C04FB984F9}\gpt.ini>.
(Configuration information could not be read from the domain controller,
either because the machine is unavailable, or access has been denied. ).
Group Policy processing aborted.

I have tried to unlink the default dc policy and that has not been successful.
