anthony.zschusschen Posted December 29, 2008 Posted December 29, 2008 After having joined a Windows XP client on my Server 2008 Domain, I noticed that the Group policies had not been applied to this profile. In my event viewer> Application Log I get an error saying "Source: Userenv - Evet ID: 1054 - Description: Windows cannot obtain the domain controller name for your computer network. (An unexpected network error occured) Group Policy processing aborted. Now I noticed that my Vista clients are all working correctly, and my server 2008 Event Viewer does not show any errors. How can I resolve this error so I can make use of the Group policies?

bobby Posted January 9, 2009 Posted January 9, 2009 Dear Anthony, Did u verify that your Windows XP computer has a correct DNS address? Please issue ipconfig /all command from your Windows XP and then check the DNS Addess value from its result. :) Bobby Zulkarnain IT Trainer and Consultant bobby iskandar zulkarnain After having joined a Windows XP client on my Server 2008 Domain, I noticed that the Group policies had not been applied to this profile.
