Cannot Access group policy objects

[Geoff]

Still points to a DNS problem. Are you sure you've done everything we've outlined correctly?

Try using replemon (start>run>replemon) will give you more of an idea of why replication is failing.

This document gives some details on how to use the tool.

If you log onto a DC launch active directory sites and services and drill down into the ntds settings for your DC's you can then right click and click on replicate now.

What result does that give you?

Ben... ive just been on that, and found that the guy before me who was lookin after the servers hadnt cleaned that up.. Also i found that some servers werent talking to others and that the machine (hades) with the replication problem was only talking to one of the 3 DCs, so ive tidied it up and made sure that all the dcs are talking to each other.. hope that is right anyway

You'll know if it's right. Your problems should go away and you shouldn't get any more warnings/errors in your event logs.

Just an update on this topic... ive sorted out the things with dns.. the dns server was not talking to the main policy machine.
Now getting back to the title of this topic... the frs is not syncing with the other DCs and im just running sonar on the policy machine and it is telling me that the datacollectionstate on 2 of the 4 dcs has failed hence the policy not been updated to the other servers.
Anyone know how to get round this problem
