Dear fellow Samba users


am having some issues with GPOs deployed from samba4


am getting this on clients


C:\Users\Administrator>gpupdate /force
Updating Policy...

User Policy update has completed successfully.
Computer policy could not be updated successfully. The following errors
were encountered:

The processing of Group Policy failed. Windows attempted to read the file \\
sondrel.com\SysVol\sondrel.com\Policies\{057D9277-8B34-49E5-A424-0EA0D2974E05}\gpt.ini
from a domain controller and was not successful. Group Policy settings may
not be applied until this event is resolved. This issue may be transient
and could
 be caused by one or more of the following:
a) Name Resolution/Network Connectivity to the current domain controller.
b) File Replication Service Latency (a file created on another domain
controller
 has not replicated to the current domain controller).
c) The Distributed File System (DFS) client has been disabled.

To diagnose the failure, review the event log or run GPRESULT /H
GPReport.html from the command line to access information about Group
Policy results.


am able to navigate to the path fine and it is replicated to my other DC so
am confused to whats causing this and why only the computer element of it


Regards
