AD - No longer can see the Net Logon folder

[Tara Wright]

In AD - I have a group policy for one OU. When I go into
the GP to edit, I seem to have lost some of my options.
For example, I would like to force what OU's are
authenticated against a particular DC. To do this, I
should be able to go to Computer
Configuration/Administrative Templates/System/Net Logon
(in Group Policy).

However, when I go into Computer
Configuration/Administrative Templates/System... all the
sub folders I have are Logon, Disk Quotas, DNS Client,
Group Policy and Windows File Protection.

Has anyone seen this before? How do I get back to
the "original" viewing of all the folders for Group
Policy?

Right Click Administrative Templates and see which templates you have
loaded. The ones you listed are the default adm templates. If a custom
template had been added ot a current template modified then editting the
group policy for a XP or W2K3 server would have updated the templates and
overwritten the modification.

What is the best way to get my "original" view back to
where I can see the following folders under
Administrative Templates/System:

User Profiles
Scripts
Logon
Disk Quotas
Net Logon
Group Policy
Remote Assistance
System Restore
Error Reporting
Windows File Protection
Remote Procedure Call
Windows Time Service

I did not intentionally attempt to modify any template,
nor did I add any custom templates.

Thanks

If it helps any, my vanilla 2000 Server doesn't have all those items; I
see the ones you're currently seeing. Perhaps you previously saw them
while administering from an XP or 2003 Server?
