Hi

We have an infrastructure consisting of 4 domain controllers, 2 on each
site, which are connected by a 256k leased line.

I have recently had some replication problems, and would like some views on
the best replication methods.

Below is the current configuration:

Site A has DC1 and DC2
Site B has DC3 and DC4

Site A

    DC1 - Replicates from DC3 twice per hour using Transport: IP
    DC1 - Replicates from DC2 twice per hour using Transport: RPC
    DC2 - Replicates from DC1 twice per hour using Transport: RPC

Site B

    DC3 - Replicates from DC1 twice per hour using Transport: IP
    DC3 - Replicates from DC4 twice per hour using Transport: RPC
    DC4 - Replicates from DC3 twice per hour using Transport: RPC

We have approx 40 workstations and 60 users.

Any suggestions would be gratefully received.

Also, and pointers on which transprt to use for which scenario would be
cool.

Thanks

Martin
