• Server 2016: Is the sysvol sync bug in July showing up in August?

    Posted on August 16, 2018 at 07:47 CDT by • Comment in the Forums

    From @njmalm1:

    Has anyone else experienced their GPOs not syncing permissions after applying KB4338814 to Server 2016?

    We were getting the ACL error

    “The sysvol permissions for one or more GPOs on this domain controller are not in sync with the permissions for the GPOs on the baseline domain”.

    Went through an Non-authoritative SYSVOL restore, demoting and promoting a domain controller, and finally uninstalled patch KB4338814 to resolve the issue.

    This problem existed on our test domain (two DCs 2012 and 2016) and our production (three DCs 1-2012 and 2-2016) The ACL sync issues only happened on one of the production 2016 DCs which was strange. Once we removed the patch we had to go to any GPOs still showing ACL errors and restore the delegation permissions to defaults in order for it to start syncing.

    I have blocked patch KB4338814 from July in WSUS but the issue is now happening again in our test Active Directory after applying the August cumulative updates. I’d love to know if anyone else is seeing this issue and if Microsoft has reported it as a problem.
