Yesterdays MS Updates killing network connectivity

hi folks

 

we are experiencing SERIOUS network performance issues since yesterdays MS

Patches (941693, 945553, 948590 and 948581)

 

wireless connections to our DC have required us to bounce the DC 7 times

today.

 

ALL of our nonDC Win 2003 Server R2 boxes are running fine, only the DC is

experiencing this.

 

we have been experiencing some copper wire network issues but just about

every wireless developer in my company is ready to ring my neck.

 

Anyone else experiencing this problem?

 

I have lots of GPO errors in the event log and just about ready to call MS.

 

Rob

Are you on SP2? Is KB948496 already installed?

I work with Rob. We are on SP2 and KB948496 was installed 3/12/08. A sample

error message is as follows:

 

Event Type: Error

Event Source: Userenv

Event Category: None

Event ID: 1058

Date: 4/9/2008

Time: 3:08:54 PM

User: MCCREADIEGROUP\scott

Computer: MCGSERV

Description:

Windows cannot access the file gpt.ini for GPO

CN={31B2F340-016D-11D2-945F-00C04FB984F9},CN=Policies,CN=System,DC=McCreadieGroup,DC=local.

The file must be present at the location

<\\McCreadieGroup.local\sysvol\McCreadieGroup.local\Policies\{31B2F340-016D-11D2-945F-00C04FB984F9}\gpt.ini>.

(Configuration information could not be read from the domain controller,

either because the machine is unavailable, or access has been denied. ).

Group Policy processing aborted.

Hm, that looks like something else then, perhaps permissions related.

How about the MMC roll-up update from

http://support.microsoft.com/kb/940848 ?

 

This kind of sounds like your error though:

http://support.microsoft.com/kb/935918/

We'll research that angle some more. It doesn't make any sense because we

haven't change the GPO recently. The only thing new was the patches this

morning.

Did you already try uninstalling the patches?
