RE: [ActiveDir] Failed to open Group Policy

Title: Message

It looks like you might be using the wrong base DN when using ldp, you seem to be using dc=ebttikarhq.com. The correct syntax should be dc=ebttikarhq,dc=com

 

A reboot of the server is always worth doing. I have never carried out this procedure so don't know the precise steps. secedit is used to refresh group policy after a change so I don't think it will help you as you can't even open a GPO.

Have a read of this and see if it helps. It basically says to check your sysvol folder for problems.

Another couple of options thrown up by a kb search are to check the account is not denied permissions on the GPO and to check your PDC Emulator is up and available.
