Hi,
I was experiencing a serious problem here, so I will post a minimized scenario here:
On the DC we have two OUs, the PC and the Server,
Like 10 days ago, we enforced a policy on the PC unit, and today I found one machine in the Server unit accidentally associated with the PC policy
(I observed this by running secpol.msc on that client machine, right after a gpupdate /force on it).
That was surely wired. So I logged on to the DC, and found several broken GPOs (that doesn't have a name, not readable), looks like the GPO UUID was kinda broken.
----
I issued gpupdate /force and rebooted the client server, and the policy was refreshed successfully.
Now my question,
1) Was this a bug on the DC?
2) Without rebooting, can I fix this? (The policies on PC are enforced, so not editable through a locally running secpol.msc)
