Hi, Researched the forums before posting but was not able to find solution to my issue. Could be a unique problem. GPO's are not being applied to users and computers because 'RPC is unavailable'. The GPO's were being applied before, but not sure what happened. Started noticing this once I binded a new instance of Windows 10 to the SambaDC and the machine nor user were picking up the GPO's. When I run gpupdate /force there is no error given but when right clicking on the OU and running 'Group Policy Update..', it shows failed and the RPC error mentioned above. Has anyone ever experienced something like this? <http://samba.2283325.n4.nabble.com/file/n4710461/Selection_001.png> . Any help would be appreciated. -- View this message in context: http://samba.2283325.n4.nabble.com/RPC-Server-is-Unavailable-when-updating-GPO-tp4710461.html Sent from the Samba - General mailing list archive at Nabble.com.

I'm assuming this is something that is trying to trigger a process directly on the client? I realise you probably don't want to set up one just to test, but the question that comes to mind is: Is it a Samba issue, or does this happen in a Windows domain also? Is there any communication with the DC?

I failed to mention this morning I restarted the samba server and that error did not come up once I ran 'Group Policy Update..'. But after a few minutes the RPC error returned. Figure this could be a samba issue as it was working on restart. The client is part to the Domain and able communicate with samba via ping. And i am still able to add additional machines to the Domain regardless of the RPC error -- View this message in context: http://samba.2283325.n4.nabble.com/RPC-Server-is-Unavailable-when-updating-GPO-tp4710461p4710469.html Sent from the Samba - General mailing list archive at Nabble.com.
