Sysvol replication problems

[rowed]

Hi All

 

I'm having few issues getting sysvol to replicate after I dcpromo a server 2008 machine into a 2003 domain, but having no problems with replication if I dcpromo another 2003 machine into the domain.

 

I have noticed that the link folders within Sysvol (2008 machine) are incorrect, and folder linking path is incorrect, but 2003 is spot on. I've changed the paths using HardLinkShellExt_win32.exe, to rectify the link folder problem, but still no replication.....

 

help:confused:, Any idea's?

 

Thanks in advance

check your versions, the schema version must match

Hi Mcshammer,

 

Thanks for the prompt reply, I have an Object-Version which is 47, not sure what it's supposed to be.

 

Thanks

47 is the correct version number.

Hi Bio

 

Any idea's why this would be an issue?, I thought the schema changes when you go through the dcpromo stuff. It seems weird, 2003 machines connect & replicate with no problems.

 

Thanks again..

You don't happen to have a very large file in your netlogon folder do you? We did, which was preventing replication. Removal of the file solved the problem.

Most of the files are just scripts, nothing too big.

I was wondering if you have any eventid messages in the eventlogs ? please post them here so we can help further

Hi Bio

 

the eventID codes are

 

Directory Service - 1645,1925

File replication - 13508, 13565

 

yet no issues when installing another 2003 machine?

 

Thanks again.
