Did you ever lose a dc in this network and just rebuild it w/o cleaning up
the AD metadata? I'm wondering if you can demote and go through a cleanup
process? If there is any old data residing in your Directory Services it
probably won;t know how to talk to your dc partners.

Otherwise you may have to rebuild your sysvol. You would have to stop the
frs service, clean up sysvol and restore, change a registry setting and
restart the service.

I demoted the backup dc and removed it's entry from ad on the primary dc
and
deleted the sysvol directory on the backup computer. I then fixed all the
errors on the primary dc (it passed using frsdiag). I then made the
backup
computer be an additional dc. It replicated all the AD, created the
SYSVOL
folder with all the directories but scripts and policies. It also has not
created the netlogon share or sysvol shares or replicated the netlogon
files
and policies. I ran dcdiag against it and now get the following errors.
Starting test: NetLogons
Unable to connect to the NETLOGON share! (\\BACKUP\netlogon)
[BACKUP] An net use or LsaPolicy operation failed with error 1203,

Starting test: Advertising
Warning: DsGetDcName returned information for
\\SCOMPUTER2.FNBNEWTOWN.COM, when we were trying to reach BACKUP.
Server is not responding or is not considered suitable.
......................... BACKUP failed test Advertising
when i run frsdiag i get :

I would demote and try runnnig some diagnostics against the current dc.
Run diagnostics against your Active Directory domain.
If you don't have the tools installed, install them from your server
install
disk.
d:\support\tools\setup.exe
Run dcdiag and netdiag in verbose mode.
If you download a gui script I wrote it should be simple to set and run.
It
also has the option to run individual tests without having to learn all
the
switch options. The details will be output in notepad text files that
pop
up automagically.
The script is located in the download section on my website at
http://www.pbbergs.com
Just select both dcdiag and netdiag make sure verbose is set. (Leave the
default settings for dcdiag as set when selected)
When complete search for fail, error and warning messages.

About 5 months ago i upgraded our domain controller from nt 4.0 to
2003
standard (fresh install). Since i did not have a backup domain
controller
i
decided to promote our backup server,windows 2000 server (it just holds
workstation backups doesn't do anything else) to a BDC. Eveything
worked
ok,
but recently i noticed replication stopped working and computers that
were
authenticating against the backup domain controller were using an older
logon
script (because the replication was not working). Since i could not
figure
out why i thought it would be a good idea to just upgrade the bdc to
2003
as
well. Before i did the in place upgrade (i just put the cd in and
upgraded
it) i thought it would be a good idea to demote it, do i did. After the
upgrade i promoted it to a domain controller and it has not yet
replicated
anything. The Sysvol folders were created but not shared and there are
no
files replicated under the any sysvol folders. The PDC is called
scomputer2
and the BDC is called BACKUP. The following is the partial log from
frsdiag.exe
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
NTDS Replication 4/28/2006 3:32:43 PM Error 1411 Active Directory

To fix this, use ADSIEdit and edit the "fRSMemberReference" Property of

be!

I tried demoting the BDC and promoting again but that did not help.
Any
help would be appreciated.
