%SYSTEMROOT%\system32\grouppolicy folder doesn't exist on client

[Razvan Hrestic]

Hi,
I'm having trouble with a machine in the AD I configured (all DCs are win
2003 server and machines are Win XP SP2). The Group Policy folder mentioned
in the subject simply does not exist on one machine, and group policy isn't
applying correctly. The userenv.log contains the following entry repeatedly:

USERENV(290.b84) 15:55:16:618 GetGPOInfo: Local GPO's gpt.ini is not
accessible, assuming default state.
USERENV(290.15d4) 15:55:17:335 PolicyChangedThread: UpdateUser failed with
0.
USERENV(290.d0c) 17:18:33:868 GetGPOInfo: Local GPO's gpt.ini is not
accessible, assuming default state.
USERENV(290.b84) 17:24:59:627 GetGPOInfo: Local GPO's gpt.ini is not
accessible, assuming default state.

What can I do about this?

Thanks

One easy way to do this is find another machine of the same OS version and
copy the contents of that folder to the machine where its missing.
