Check if the gpt.ini file indeed exists in the sysvol folders on ALL domain
controllers. I have this problem with 3 of my DCs, where file replication
happens for some of the items in the sysvol folder. Try manually copy the
files that are missing, this works fine for me. I don't know what is causing
the replication to be incomplete. Good luck finding a solution
