Aaron, I have had this happen to me also. The way to fix this is as follows:
- run mmc. - Add the security configuration and analysis snapin - Create a database - Import the setup security.inf - Right click the server icon and select analyze computer now. - You'll see that under local "policies/user rights assignment" in the computer setting column most service accounts will have been removed. - Check the other settings and make sure your account policies are correct (change them if necessary). - Right click the server icon and select "configure computer now". This will set all your user rights back the way they were. - Reboot and you should be fine. Good luck. Jef ________________________________________ From: Joseph B.

Turned up to be an issue with the firewall configuration on the PCs. This configuration problem was created by group policy, which was limiting the services... which created a problem with SP2 for XP which used different services then XP SP1. Not sure if this helps, but you can check this by placing a new system into a OU with blocking any GPO from getting to it to see if this resolves the issue after a few reboots. Joseph B.

On a few systems, mostly servers, but a couple desktops as well, we setup a version of the Microsoft "High Security" policy, at an OU level that applied to some machines. Upon application and first reboot, all seems to work perfectly. If we reboot the machine again, while booting, the machine begins to process the GPO and then loses it's network connectivity. The network cards no longer appear inside the "Network Connections" folder. If one were to run "ipconfig /all" the network connections appear, and have IP address information associated to them. The machine can not ping out, nor respond to ping from outside. Thanks for any help that can be given. /aaron Aaron Steele University of Chicago Enterprise Systems Administrator P: 773.834.9099 E: [EMAIL PROTECTED] This email is intended only for the use of the individual or entity to which it is addressed and may contain information that is privileged and confidential.
