RE: GPO problems?

More error data.. can anyone point me in the right direction? Everything was
running fine until I installed a new server NIC, modem, router, etc. after
the lightning strike. I'm just wondering at this point if it's just a
connectivity problem or if there may be further server damage from the power
surge. Can this sort of thing be fixed relatively easily or do we need to
start from scratch and restore from backup or reinstall? Like I said iin
other posts, users can log in, use the internet, and access the companyweb.
Are not able to access their folders which are redirected to the server. Just
wondering how those w/ more experience might respond. Thanks!

Running SBS2003 current versions
Had a lighting strike nearby and lost a modem, router and nic. Replaced,
reset everything. Everything connects OK. Only problem is when users log in.
User logs in OK and has network services, internet access, network printers,
etc. However user's machine shows they are off line w/ no connection
available. They can't access to synch folders and can't access mapped drives
on server.

I looked at GPO and noticed one GPO is listed as "not found"
Under the linked GPO's they are listed as
1 SBS Domain Password Policy
2 SBS Folder Redirection
3 "Not Found"
4 SBS Remote Assistance Policy
5 SBS Windows Firewall
6 SBS Internet Connection Wizard
7 SBS Client Computer
8 SBS Lockout Policy
9 Default Domain Policy

If the "not found" item is causing this is there a way to look at history or
a log somewhare to see what that poicy was?

Thanks!

Tom
