Problems in event log

[Drazen]

We have the following errors in Application event log on Windows 2000
SP4 DC, appearing every day, several times per day always in the
following order:

Event ID: 1000
Source: Userenv
"Windows cannot access the registry information at
\\komunalac.local.hr\sysvol\komunalac.local.hr\Policies\{31B2F340-016D-11D2-945F-00C04FB984F9}\Machine\registry.pol
with (1351). "

then

Event ID: 1001
Source: SceCli
"Security policy cannot be propagated. Cannot access the template.
Error code = 3.
\\komunalac.local.hr\sysvol\komunalac.local.hr\Policies\{31B2F340-016D-11D2-945F-00C04FB984F9}\Machine\Microsoft\Windows
NT\SecEdit\GptTmpl.inf. "

then

Event ID: 1000
Source: UserEnv
"The Group Policy client-side extension Security was passed flags (17)
and returned a failure status code of (3). "

I tried to check permissions on file system, but they seem OK to me.
Interesting thing is that trying to open \\komunalac.local.hr produces
a messagebox stating that:
"\\komunalac.local.hr
The filename, directory name, or volume label syntax is incorrect."
Not sure if its connected with events in Application log though.

What could be the reason for this errors?

Look at setting up Ultrasound or running FRSDiag to help diagnose any
possible problems. You could also look at DCDiag (More on that below).
These tools can help you try to track down what specific error(s) you may
have occuring, the 1000 is a very generic "You have a problem" message.

Run diagnostics against your Active Directory domain.

If you don't have the tools installed, install them from your server install
disk.
d:\support\tools\setup.exe

Run dcdiag and netdiag in verbose mode.

If you download a gui script I wrote it should be simple to set and run. It
also has the option to run individual tests without having to learn all the
switch options. The details will be output in notepad text files that pop
up automagically.

The script is located in the download section on my website at
http://www.pbbergs.com

Just select both dcdiag and netdiag make sure verbose is set. (Leave the
default settings for dcdiag as set when selected)

When complete search for fail, error and warning messages.
