Thank you for posting to the SBS Newsgroup.
I am sorry for the delayed response due to weekend. Please understand that
the newsgroups are staffed weekdays by Microsoft Support professionals to
answer your systems and applications questions. Your understanding is
greatly appreciated!
Due to lack of detail error information for research, I need your help to
gather the following information for troubleshooting:
1. When did this issue occur? Did you install any updates or make any
changes on the server recently? Is there any third party software installed
on the server?
2. Please send the file C:\WINDOWS\security\logs\scepol.log to me to
analysis.
3. Please explain in detail "I try a gpupdate manually and no errors come
up, but none also to say they have be applied updated. the group policies
are getting applied". Did Group Policy have been applied to client
workstations or not?
4. How many Domain controllers in your SBS 2K3 domain?
5. On the server, run "eventvwr" (without quotation marks), check whether
there is any other error, for example, Event ID 1001. If yes, please help
to gather the
\\domainname\sysvol\domainname\Policies\{GUID}\Machine\Microsoft\Windows
NT\SecEdit\GptTmpl.inf file. {GUID} is a sequence of number listed in the
Event ID 1001 Description.
6. Please help to gather the Winlogon.log file. Please refer to the
following KB article for detail steps to Enable Logging.
How to Enable Logging for Security Configuration Client Processing in
Windows 2000

7. On the server, run "eventvwr" (without quotation marks), right click
Application, select Save Log File As. Please save the file as .evt file and
send the file to me.
Please send all the log files I require to my mailbox:
v-br...@microsoft.com.
I am appreciated your time and co-operation! If anything is unclear, please
feel free to let me know. I am looking forward to hearing from you!
Best regards,
