Access Denied:Group policy

[Tia]

I am running a sbs with windows 2000. This machines is
my dns, ad, dc, and exchange server. When I go into the
active directory and right-click on my server it displays
three tabs, one of which is the group policy. If i
select that tab a pop up screen appears saying that
access is denied to group policy. I am the administrator
and have the securities giving me full control over the
group policy. Any suggestions? Can i reset the group
policy and start over from scratch? Any ideas as to why
I don't have access?

Thanks for any help!!

Can you give us the ipconfig/all please?
How are you connecting to the internet?

Marina,

Yes, i have checked the event logs and nothing really
jumps out at me. I connect to the internet over a t1.
All servers have static IP's though the users are
assigned IP's from a DHCP Server. I only have 1 nic on
this server. Here is the ipconfig /all.

C:\Documents and Settings\Administrator>ipconfig /all

I am not familiar with sbs, but it must be similar to W2K domain controller. Try
running mmc and then adding the Group Policy snap in. If that does not work see the
link below that may be of interest. --- Steve
