Group Policy Preferences not mapping printers to terminal server sessions

Hi Guys,

I made a post a long ways back here:

http://community.spiceworks.com/topic/327890-using-group-policy-preferences-to-change-the-default-pr...

I'm still struggling with this issue. To recap there are 3 different locations. Location A houses the domain controller (also acting as the terminal server). Locations B & C connect back to A via hardware vpn. Locations B & C have Brother MFC printers. They are installed and shared from the Domain Controller on location A.

I have a group policy preference setup that connects & sets the default printer on the client PC at locations B & C as well as terminal server sessions that are initiated from B & Cs subnets.

The GPP is properly setting the default printer on the client PCs at each location, but it's not working in terminal server sessions. I'm getting errors in event viewer for:

Group Policy object did not apply because it failed with error code '0x8007007b The filename, directory name, or volume label syntax is incorrect.

So I turned on logging and here is a little snippet.

What stands out to me is the IP address 300.250.2.1. I have no idea where that came from.
