Re: SBS 2003 and Replication Errors with Remote DC

KJ, when I attempt to post the dcdiag output, this board states that the
messages it too large.

I'm running SBS 2003 Premium w/SP1 (not R2). I have created a remote
branch office DC running Windows 2003 Standard. The sites are linked
with a hardware VPN alliance at the remote site back to my SBS with
ISA. The remote site is using 192.168.1.* and the SBS is running the
standard 192.168.16.*. When I promoted the remote server using DC
promo, everything went fine and I rebooted. I have setup DNS on the
remote office and created a new site, subnets, intersite messaging
and reverse DNS at the main site in SBS. I can ping successfully in
both directions.

The problem I'm having now is that it doesn't appear that replication
is occuring on the changes that I'm making to AD Users and Computers
in the branch office. DCPROMO did create the <automatically
generated> links between my three DCs (SBS and another W2003 server
in my main office and my remote W2003 server). However, the branch
office DC replicates with the additional DC in my main office and not
my SBS, which was set this way by DCPROMO. The standard DC shares
were created by DCPROMO like SYSVOL and NETLOGON.

I'm currently getting NTDS KCC 1272 entries in my Event Viewer that
state "The following directory partition is no longer replicated from
the source domain controller..."

Any help at resolving these replication issues would be greatly
appreciated. I did use Marina Roos' documents on the branch office
server setups, which was quite helpful.

Thanks.

Ken

start with a dcdiag /c /e /v

post the complete output and we'll go from there.

urgency may also be an issue, how long has it not been replicating?
