GPO's fail to apply on Windows clients and sysvol permission errors are logged.
DC is Samba 4.13.0 created via a classic upgrade.

Logged sysvol errors (uid 5025 is the system I ran gpupdate on, don't
know what uid 3000011 refers to):

Windows system log provides:
===================================
The processing of Group Policy failed. Windows could not apply the
registry-based policy settings for the Group Policy object
LDAP://CN=Machine,cn={E2BC0255-64C8-42CF-A27A-59A7D3DCD2DC},cn=policies,cn=
system,DC=my,DC=example,DC=com. Group Policy settings will not be resolved
until this event is resolved. View the event details for more information on the
file name and path that caused the failure.
===================================

How to solve?

Thanks,
