So I have been through all the online help forums, tutorials, videos, and other online research and I cannot seem to find a solution to my problem. I was trying to access folders located on the file share service on the DC and am unable to as I get the error code 0x80070035 which is the "Network path cannot be found". Then I go into the event viewer and get and error with an event ID: 1058.
"The processing of Group Policy failed. Windows attempted to read the file %9 from a domain controller and was not successful. Group Policy settings may not be applied until this event is resolved. This issue may be transient and could be caused by
one or more of the following:
a) Name Resolution/Network Connectivity to the current domain controller.
b) File Replication Service Latency (a file created on another domain controller has not replicated to the current domain controller).
c) The Distributed File System (DFS) client has been disabled."
OpCode: (1)
I tried to resolve a, b, and c; but all of the services were on, sharing permissions were enabled, and nothing was fixing this error. I've tried to force the DFS to replicate, however it cannot do that because again, "Network Path not found".
I am able to ping, nslookup, the DC
I ran a dcdiag /v /c /q and the following tests failed:

It appears that I'm having an authentication failure/issue, but I cannot find a solution. I am aware that some of the configuration with whats placed in the DC and not having a BDC are faults on my part, but this is the first server I've put up and I am trying to learn how to make it right so I don't run into this issue again or can avoid it.
I've tried deleting the replicated dfs files, but it won't allow me access to that, I've tried running the DC in a virtual environment and trying to fix/repair with the installation media.
If you'd like me to run other commands I am more than happy to do so. I hope this is enough information for someone to point me in the right direction. Any help would be much appreciated. I'll post some images as well once my account is verified.
Thank you in advance,
Tony
