Re: Event 1058 gpt.ini file access denied

Just to add: As I've seen some posts about multi-homed DCs.

This is from one of the DCs itself. It has a single NIC, but it does provide RRAS (PPTP VPN) services to Internet clients. Not sure if that classifies it as multi-homed or not.

DNS is configured for the internal DNS server (and as far as I can tell all the SRV records are good).

There are some other issues on the DC I'm checking into about Autoenrollment and DC certificate failures (0x80070005), but clients seem to be ok using this server as a DC.

Hi,

Looking at the event logs of some of my DCs, I've seeing a complaint:

Event Type: Error
Event Source: Userenv
Event Category: None
Event ID: 1058
Date: 23/07/2009
Time: 16:32:59
User: NT AUTHORITY\SYSTEM
Computer: UBIQ-SERV9
Description:
Windows cannot access the file gpt.ini for GPO CN={31B2F340-016D-11D2-945F-00C04FB984F9},CN=Policies,CN=System,DC=ubiquisys,DC=local. The file must be present at the location <\\mynetwork.local\sysvol\mynetwork.local\Policies\{31B2F340-016D-11D2-945F-00C04FB984F9}\gpt.ini>. (Access is denied. ). Group Policy processing aborted.


but the gpt.ini file is there (GPT.INI)

It has access perms:

Authenticated Users: Read & Execute
Server Operators R & E
Administrators Full Control
SYSTEM Full Control

seems ok to me !?!
