Re: NTDS Replication event 2023 error 8589

Sorry for the delay - I wanted to verify this in one of my customer
environments - they have several domains in a forest. I haven't been able
to yet, as I've been out of the office.

Try adding the necessary NTDS Settings object DN into the serverReference
attribute, regardless of domain. This is like so:

CN=NTDS Settings, CN=<Computer name>, CN=Servers, CN=<Site name>, CN=Sites,
CN=Configuration, DC=<forest root>,DC=com


e.g.

CN=NTDS Settings, CN=LON-MIIS, CN=Servers, CN=Default-First-Site-Name,
CN=Sites, CN=Configuration, DC=fabrikam,DC=com


Note. There appears to be a typo in the DN listed in the KB. The above is
correct - pasted from a VM.
