Hi,
I'm trying to help sort out some teething issues with a Win2008 Std Svr incorporated into an existing Win2k3 SBS Domain. The 2008 Svr was preped to join the existing SBS Domain as a seconday member server. But they have recently being having access issues & the Sys Log is displaying Event ID 1006 (Processing of Group Policy Failed). Any suggestions or advice? Thanks in advance!

See if any of the scenarios match up to that of yours at Event ID 1006
There are different flavours for this event depending on the actual description of the reason why the computer was unable to bind to the domain controller:
- Invalid Credentials – This indicates that the computer was able to find and attempt to connect to the domain controller but the credentials used to authenticate itself were incorrect. In most cases this is a sign of incorrect DNS configuration.
- Local Error – This shows that the computer didn’t get that far as to connect to a domain controller (there was a problem locally). For example, having TCP/IP Filtering enabled on the network card may stop the local computer from connecting to the domain controller using the TCP/389 (LDAP) protocol.
- Timeout – When this is recorded, it appears that the computer did find the domain controller but when it tried to connect to it the connection request timed out.
