Event ID: 1058 and 1030 occur every five minutes

I get the following events every five minutes on my newly appointed 2003
domain controller. All roles are still on the 2000 server.


Event ID: 1030

Windows cannot query for the list of Group Policy objects. Check the event
log for possible messages previously logged by the policy engine that
describes the reason for this.

Event ID: 1058

Windows cannot access the file gpt.ini for GPO
CN={31B2F340-016D-11D2-945F-00C04FB984F9},CN=Policies,CN=System,DC=Werner-Todd-Pump,DC=com.
The file must be present at the location
<\\Werner-Todd-Pump.com\sysvol\Werner-Todd-Pump.com\Policies\{31B2F340-016D-11D2-945F-00C04FB984F9}\gpt.ini>.

aborted.

Possible solutions:
1) Set local area (internal) NIC to the top of the network Binding order.
2) As workaround open the command prompt type dfsutil /PurgeMupCache, and
then
press ENTER.
3) Read, download and install the pathc discussed in the following article:

http://support.microsoft.com/?kbid= 842804

4) Disable SMB-signing:

5) See if either one of these help:
"You may not have appropriate rights" error message when you try to open the
Domain Security Policy console or the Domain Controller Security Policy
console from the command prompt:
http://support.microsoft.com/?id=832214

You cannot open file shares or Group Policy snap-ins when you disable SMB
signing for the Workstation or Server service on a domain controller:

6) If all else fails, uninstall Windows 2003 Sp1

I think I found a new part of the problem. When trying to open up a GPO in
Active Driectory I get the following error.

Failed to open the Group Policy Object. You may not have the appropriate
rights.

Details:
The system cannot find the path specified.


When I look in the C:\winnt\sysvol\sysvol\My Domain folder I have folders
called Policies_NTFRS_001f579e and scripts_NTFRS_001F58f6 where the policies
are located. Don't know why they are in the Policies and Scripts folders that
are there.

This folder are on both servers. I think there are issues with the NtFRS.

Problem was becasue of the extra folders in the sysvol folder. Deleted the
Policies folder and renamed the Policies_NTFRS folder to just policies. Moved
any scripts from the scripts_ntfrs folder to the scripts folder and deleted
the scripts_ntfrs folder. Forced replication of domain and errors on both
server went away, as well as the problem of not being able to open the
polices on the 2000 server.
