Question : SYSVOL Policies

In May 2007 I backed up the System State copied it to one of our banch office, restore it to a temp folder on c: drive and did a DCPROMO /ADV on a Windows 2003 R2 server.  Everything works great.  But last night I was on Branch server copying over some files when I notice the c:\temp folder still have these old restored files -- so I deleted the contents of the Temp folder.  Now I'm getting "Windows cannot access the file gpt.ini for GPO CN={6AC1786C-016F-11D2-945F-00C04fB984F9},CN=Policies,CN=System,DC=arcticgroup,DC=local. The file must be present at the location <\\arcticgroup.local\sysvol\arcticgroup.local\Policies\{6AC1786C-016F-11D2-945F-00C04fB984F9}\gpt.ini>. (The system cannot find the path specified. ). Group Policy processing aborted."

The question is, why would the \\domain\sysvol\  point to the temp folder?
