Hi,
One of my company team domain administrator was playing
around with the Default Domain Controller GPO trying to
restrict access to the GPO, and now every time I access
the GPO in the Active Directory Users and Computers I get
this error message:

YOU ONLY HAVE PERMISSION TO VIEW THE CURRENT SECURITY
INFORMATION ON DEFAULT DOMAIN CONTROLLERS POLICY. I can
not edit, neither take control...

I do not have a backup of my Active Directory so I can not
restore my previous setting. Any suggestions would be VERY
helpful.

Please HEEEELP!
Thanks

Well..
I got the answer by myself!
The OWNER of the GPO was the DOMAIN CONTROLLERS group
while the administrator had nothing. I had to add the
administrator account into the DOMAIN CONTROLLERS group,
logoff then logon, take the ownership and full control,
then remove the administrator from the Domain COntrollers
group!

:)
