Re: Active directory replication problems

OK, so your not in the "tombstone danger zone". Apologies if you've already
posted this, but please describe how the two sites are connected to each
other (VPN). Also post the results of each of the following run from EACH
DC;

Ipconfig/all

dcdiag /e /v

8-22-2006 was the last successful replication.

"J", I would doubt that, even if it was possible. PDC is an NT4 and
earlier thing.

OP, what is the network connection type to the other site and how long
has the replication problem been going on?

Would it be beneficial to run dcpromo to upgrade the Windows 2000 BDC to
PDC and downgrade the SBS 2003 from PDC to BDC then reverse the process?

By the way...AD replication problems started when I reinstalled the
server
tools and Exchange.

Hi,
I have SBS 2003 as the PDC and 2000 as a domain controller in
another
site. I've been having AD replication problems. I checked DNS and it
seems to be configured properly. I used DNSLint and didn't find any
problems with name resolution. Is there a way can repair AD without
havin
to reinstall SBS 2003? Is there a utility that I can run to do more
troublshooting.

In the event log, there are some entries...

1722 The RPC server is unavailable - I can telnet on port 135...I can
do a
net view \\<servername> successfully

Internal event: Active Directory could not synchronize the following
directory partition with the domain controller at the following network
address.
Directory partition:
DC=mbiri,DC=com
Network address:
d8055eba-fec9-4050-b114-38f977a2022e._msdcs.<domain>.com

Any ideas will be great

Thanks in advance

J
