Event ID:   6702

Situation: The client tried to edit a domain Group Policy Object (GPO) on a computer running Windows 2003 DC with DNS, he received the following error message:

The domain controller for Group Policy operations is not available. You may cancel this operation for this session or retry using one of the following domain controller choices:
