I have 2 pc running WS2k3. One is a domain controller the other a file server. For the past, i dont know, 3 months or so Ive been getting userenv 1091 errors about every 1.5 hrs. The only event preceding this is a notice the "Security policy in the GPO has been successfully applied".
I also get the error when i run gpupdate. Its apparently GP related. Any ideas? is this a problem on the file server or the DC? note: there are no related/corresponding errors on the DC.

Your Windows Management Instrumentation (WMI) is not functioning correctly.

As a consequence, you are not processing RSoP information.

Even if your group policy was successfully applied, the RSoP diagnostic information is not available.

Search MS's KB articles for probably either "IPSec and userenv 1091" or if you're using Folder Redirection search for that too.

More than likely, it's your IPSec policy that has gotten corrupted or misconfigured.

done alot of research into this and also think it may be a WMI problem. HOWEVER, all the links i find for MS KB on re-installing WMI come up with a dead page. Any idea where I can find info on how to do this?
Will keep digging the the KB.....

**Edit**
Searched the KB for what you said and found article Ive run across b4 > http://support.microsoft.com/kb/823608

I dont have the accompanying 1085 error though, and am reluctant to call M$ to maybe get a hotfix that might work ;-)
strange you cant get the hotfix on their site...

Do you have a file called gptext.log here:

C:\%windows dir%\debug\usermode

That may help show you some of the GP errors.

I also found this:

1. At the cmd line enter (run the following commands from the windows\system32\wbem folder and hit enter after each line):
- mofcomp exwmi.mof.
- mofcomp -n:root\cimv2\applications\exchange wbemcons.mof.
- mofcomp -n:root\cimv2\applications\exchange smtpcons.mof.
- mofcomp exmgmt.mof.
- mofcomp rsop.mof.
- mofcomp rsop.mfl.
- cd back down one level to windows\system32 and run the following:
- regsvr32 /n /i userenv.dll.
- reboot the system.
- After the reboot, you should no longer see the event. However if you still see event 1091 after reboot, re-register the security client dll by running the following commands:
- regsvr32 /u scecli.dll.
- regsvr32 scecli.dll.
2. Perform a gpupdate and see if event 1091 from source Userenv is gone.
3. Run the following switches:
winmgmt /regserver winmgmt /resyncperf winmgmt ?e.
4. Reboot and perform a gpupdate. See if the event is gone.
