Actually if i log onto another PC with this user it still is happening

Then wipe out the profile entirely and start over.

(another user logged onto his pc doesnt have this problem), also i
logged this user out and renamed his profile folder locally

Don't do that. Remove it in control panel. Then try again...

and on
the profiles share (roaming prof) and then logged him back in to his
PC to give him a new profile. On the new/blank profile with the same
user account i still get the errors inside rsop.msc... weird. What do
i have to do to resolve this? It seems like its not machine specific,
but shouldnt a new profile for the same user account fix it in that
case?

Thanks for the help.

Error - Logon failure: unknown user name or bad password.

The error information from inside "user configuration" properties is
the following:
Monday, September 17, 2007 8:24:49 AM

Group Policy Infrastructure failed due to the error listed below.
Logon failure: unknown user name or bad password.

Note: Due to the GP Core failure, none of the other Group Policy
components processed their policy. Consequently, status information
for the other components is not available.

I suggest you try posting in microsoft.public.windows.group_policy
if you want more expert help with this. Frankly, if this user can
log into another workstation with no problems, I'd just wipe and
rebuild this box (ideally, you've got images you can use) rather
than wasting a lot more time on it.





I am also getting event id#1030&1058 daily.
1030-Windows cannot query for the list of Group Policy objects. A
message that describes the reason for this was previously logged by
the policy engine. 1058-Windows cannot access the file gpt.ini for
GPO
CN={3DA8E0C3-21DF-42B4-B14F-DA725B44D2FD},CN=Policies,CN=System,DC=kciinc,DC=net.
The file must be present at the location
<\\kciinc.net\SysVol\kciinc.net\Policies\{3DA8E0C3-21DF-42B4-B14F-DA725B44D2FD}\gpt.ini>.
(Logon failure: unknown user name or bad password. ). Group Policy
processing aborted.

I dont understand the bad username/password, the user logs in fine.
Everything works great except this folder redirection. Exchange,
sharepoint, log/logout, etc.

Thanks for the help

just did rsop.msc and when it comes up the "user configuration"
bottom portion of the gpo has a red x on it,

In rsop.msc - click on <username on computername>onthe left
Click on User configuration on the right
Click Properties
Click Error Information

That should show you more info.
also a window pops up when you
access the user portion of the gpo and says there was a bad
username/password on accessing the .adm files (admin template).

What's the exact text of the message?


however as stated earlier gpresult /z shows the setting as
correctly set... shouldn't disjoining and readding to the domain
have fixed this issue? seems like a trust issue between this
workstation and the domain now... how to fix?

Not necessarily - what do you see in the event logs?

Done gpupdate /force
gpresult /z shows the policy is being set
right click on my docs shows local c:\docs and settings folder as

i disjoined and readded this pc to the domain with no luck
installed uhcp
deleted profile locally, logged back in as user (roaming
profiles) i do have event id 1517/1524 before i installed uhcp...

none of the above has solved the issue, any ideas.
i will run rsop.msc to see what it returns, should be the same as
gpresult /z though...

We have server 2003 and all xp sp2, roaming profiles and user
home directories. Inside our main gpo for all users i have
configured folder redirection for my documents using the
setting "redirect to user's home directory". This works great
since the "u:" drive on all profiles is now the same as the my
documents location and therefore all my doc links (on desktop
and in apps) goes to the same place. We have had this working
for over a year now, last week one of the user's my documents
folder started not redirecting. When you right click my
documents on the desktop it says "c:\documents and
settings\username\my docs" instead of the UNC path like
everyone elses. The "u:" drive or home directory is still
being mapped and is available, all files are there and work
normally. No one else has reported this problem. HELP!!!

TG

Check the workstation's event logs, and run an rsop.msc to check
for errors. Oh, and before anything, do a gpupdate /force.
