Hello George,

Please give more info about the amount of DC's in total, which holds the 5FSMO roles and how are the servers located, one subnet or more then one. Also give some info about the DNS configuration, which kind of zones? Also post the complete error from the event viewer and if there are more please post them also. Did you run dcdiag and netdiag to check for errors on all DC's. Do it and if you have errors post the complete ouput here.

Best regards

A new DC server last only two weeks, it had to be replaced. I used
Acronis to image the server, it's Windows 2003 Entreprise Edition R2.
After restoring the image to the new server, AD does not replicate.
This server is the main DC, the only DNS server in the cluster.
Everything works, DNS, etc.. But, AD does not replicate. I get the
following error when i try to replicate from AD, error ID: 8457, which
means "The destination server is currently rejecting replication
requests".

For sure something was not imaged properly using Acronis, this server
has two static disk, one Raid 1 for the OS and Raid 10 for the SQL
application.

I ran Repadmin without success, i still have the old server that boots
and works, and i can still copy file from it. The question is what was
not copied by Acronis that i need to move to the new server. Or is
there a way to fix the replication problem. Any help is appriciated.

thank you,
g
