Hello all,
I am currently working on my first 2003-2011 SBS migration. While running the prep tool on the 2003 server, it tells me that the "logon as a batch job user right assignment is not correct" and indicates that I need to change this in Group Policy editor. The problem is that I have somehow gotten locked out of GP editor. I am unable to edit any policies on the 2003 server. The message says "Failed to open the group policy object. You may not have appropriate rights." This is a small network and I have only rarely used group policy in the past and I can't even remember the last time I needed it. I have scoured the web for solutions to this and tried several of them, but I keep getting this error.
I tried using dcacls to reset permissions to default as described in this article:

Also followed the instructions in this article to no avail:

I am basically stuck until I get this fixed. Any suggestions would be appreciated.
thanks,
Mike
