Domain Controller Security Policy

[William Tyler]

Hello,

Could someone help me with this one:

For some reason or another I am no longer able to open (or see) the
"Security Settings" in Domain Controller Security Policy, the message I
receive when going into Domain Controller Security Policy is; "Windows
cannot open template file".

I'm working with Windows 2000 Server with AD enable, presently there are two
Domain Controllers. I'm unable to open Security Settings in either.

I there a file (some "template file") that I should be looking for to
resolve this issue.

Any help you can give me in this would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks
William

Use the Security Configuration and Analysis tool and template to reset the
security policy.
