One of the domain controllers is our File and Print server. It is on this
server that I would like to audit files.
I have since noticed/caused another issue while looking at the default
domain policy. Here is my problem.
Anyone happens to know why I am getting "Windows cannot
open template file" when I try to access Default Domain
Policy GPO >Computer Configuration>> Windows Settings>>
Security Settings.
In addition to that, several sub-categories under Security
Settings like Account Policies, Local Policies etc. have
vanished. As a result I can not modify domain-wide
security policies. Sure I can always create a new GPO and
link it with OU or root first priority, but I would rather
like to solve the issue before going for work-arounds.
