To resolve the problem, perform the following steps:

1. Navigate to the

\%systemroot%\sysvol\sysvol\domainname\policies\<policy

guid>\machine\microsoft\windows nt\secedit folder for the policy

affecting the "Access this computer from the network" user right, then

locate and open the gpttmpl.inf file. To determine the correct policy,

you'll need to identify the appropriate globally unique identifier

(GUID) for the policy. You can determine a policy's GUID by opening

the Active Directory Users and Computers snap-in, displaying the

container's Properties dialog box, clicking the Group Policy tab, then

viewing the policy's properties. Because the Active Directory Users

and Computers snap-in might not be accessible, you'll probably have to

manually view each policy's GUID to identify the correct Group Policy

Object (GPO).

2. From the gpttmpl.inf file, copy everything after

"SeInteractiveLogonRight=". The string of values will look similar to



SeInteractiveLogonRight =

*S-1-5-32-550,*S-1-5-32-549,*S-1-5-32-548,*S-1-5-32-551,*S-1-5-32-544,*S-1-5-21-907700337-33305

34744-2079332775-1003



3. Paste the string of values you copied from the

SeInteractiveLogonRight line after the equals (=) sign in the

"SeNetworkLogonRight=" line in the gpttmpl.inf file.

4. Save the changes, then close the gpttmpl.inf file.

5. Locate and open the gpt.ini file at the following folder:



\%systemroot%\sysvol\sysvol\domainname\policies\<policy guid>



6. Increase the version number. For example, change



[General]

Version=1



to



[General]

Version=2



7. Save and close the file.

8. Force a replication of the GPO by opening a command session and

typing



secedit /refreshpolicy machine_policy /enforce
