[Samba] Clients unable to get group policy...

in the correct place as far as I can tell. In fact, the error in the

go correct your sysvol SHARE rights first. and reset it from within windows. 
test and keep "everyone" full acces on the share right. 
then go to the security tab, and set. 
Verificed users.  Read and execute
SYSTEM, Full control 
Administrators, Full controll 
Server Operators. Read and execute

then try from 1 pc. 

login as DOMAIN\Administrator 
try accessing  \\server\sysvol 
and try \\server.your.domain.tld\sysvol  

do they both work ? if only \\server.your.domain.tld works, 
then add the domain option to your dhcp server. and there are 2 ! domain options. 
1 for the pc and 1 for the domain search. 
whats the difference... 
pc joins the domain and wil be named pc.your.domain.tld.
pc search can be different, and this can be set wrong in dhcp server. 

test this also on the remote location. 

make a test user, set the primairy group to "Domain User" 
try above again. 

but, when i read through your mails below, im thinking almost sure your sysvol share rights are not correct. 

Greetz, 

Louis
