Hi all,

I am running windows server 2012 R2 with 4/5 client PCs. All but one are running fine
The final one I am trying to run a group policy update as the mapped drives, background etc are not coming through. It shows this error
"
>gpupdate /force
Updating policy...

Computer policy could not be updated successfully. The following errors were encountered:

The processing of Group Policy failed. Windows could not resolve the computer name. This could be caused by one of more of the following:
a) Name Resolution failure on the current domain controller.
b) Active Directory Replication Latency (an account created on another domain controller has not replicated to the current domain controller).
User Policy could not be updated successfully. The following errors were encountered:

The processing of Group Policy failed. Windows could not authenticate to the Active Directory service on a domain controller. (LDAP Bind function call failed). Look in the details tab for error code and description.

To diagnose the failure, review the event log or run GPRESULT /H GPReport.html from the command line to access information about Group Policy results.
"

I can ping the server fine, I removed and added it back to the domain no problem (removed the PC from the server dashboard as well)

I am at a loss why I can't update this

Any ideas?
Thanks
 
Just restarted, a differnet message

gpupdate /force

Computer policy could not be updated successfully. The following errors were encountered:

The processing of Group Policy failed because of lack of network connectivity to a domain controller. This may be a transient condition. A success message would be generated once the machine gets connected to the domain controller and Group Policy has successfully processed. If you do not see a success message for several hours, then contact your administrator.

Can ping the server by name just fine :/
 
PC has static IP

The server is called "examplenet-server", ping examplenet-server works just fine

Not sure what replication is sorry, I had a look online and I have no idea what it means :(
I tried removing and readding to domain, no help
