GPO - Can't Edit/Backup Because Access Denied & No Policies Folder

[gavm99]

Hi all,

I have a Windows 2003 Server with is a DC. It is the only DC on the domain. I can't edit the default GPO's because it tells me 'The system cannot find the path specified'

It also does this then I attempt to back them up.

I have looked at other articles and they suggested resetting the policie files (

http://support.microsoft.com/kb/324800)

but when I look within SysVol I do not have a policies folder present.

I am guessing that the path the GPO complains about is the Policies folder which is missing from SysVol.

So the long and short of it is, I need to have the policies folder presentin SysVol on the server before proceeding further, any ideas how I can get this done?

Thanks in advance.
