I need those MCSE's help.I'm using a Windows 2000 server,running on Active Directory,DNS
active directory zone and DHCP service.Actually I don't know which setting did i changed that
caused this problem below.I logged on as Administrator,when Itried to open D.Controller policy
it display out this message "Group policy error
Failed to open Group Policy Object.You may not have appropriote rights
Details:The system cannot find the path specified."
When I tried to open Local Security Policy this error comes out
"IP Security policy management
An IPSEC policy has been provided by the D.controller.Domain provided policy overide policy
settings made on the local(or remote machine).
I read thru the books it says that the error is due to DNS server problem.
Please advise.

Hi,
Some parts of your post are a bit confusing, for a start if you are trying to open the local policy on a dc it won't work period - as local policy functionality is disabled, but you shouldn't be seeing an ipsec message at that point. The message you are getting opening a GP sounds like you have 'lost' or deleted the folder that the flat GPO file was stored in. check out this article q253268
go to www.microsoft.com/technet and search for that number. The article will explain how to recover from your problem. Hope it goes ok....
