GPO - The network path was not found

Using the Group Policy Management tool, I get "The network path was not
found" when I attempt to access the Default Domain Controller Policy as well
as the Default Domain Policy. I have followed the instructions in various Q
articles regarding DFS, but to no avail.

If I attempt to edit the two policies mentioned above, I get the following
error "Failed to open teh Group Policy Object. You may not have appropriate
rights. The network path was not found."

Note that everything appears to be in the correct place with the correct
permissions assigned. I am also logging in with a user with admin rights.

Any ideas here?

you must have the "enterprise admin" rights

I am using the standard admininstrator account which by defaul has EntAdm
rights. Just to be safe, I verified that it does.
