If there is a event logged shortly before this event that one would be more
useful.

John,

Please post the details of the 1030 and the details of any corresponding
error if there is one, were looking for a SCECLI that may have more details.

Here are a couple ideas.

1. Somethings wrong with the physical structure of the policy whose GUID may
be referenced in the other error. Example, the GPT.ini is missing.

2. DNS issues.

3. I have seen a hard to nail down 1030 that was occurring on a Terminal
Server that had an extremely old session still logged in. The errors were
occurring because the users password had expired.

4. Netlogon isn't started.

5. 1- Verify that the OU GPO has Authenticated Users with Read and Apply
Group Policy.
It did.
2- Verify that the OU itself has Authenticated Users with Read permissions.
It did
not. Added.
NOTE: You would need to select Advanced View in AD Users and Computers in
order to
see the Security Tab on the OU Properties.
3- Ran gpupdate tool.


There are many more possible solutions, it really depends on the exact error
that you are getting.
