Hi there,
Inhereted from consultants and I know there is issues with the way they
set up AD, so trying to back peddle here.
I am hoping someone can help and looked through previous postings to no
avail.
Here are the specs, two servers. PDC and PDC2 (BDC). Both running AD
windows server 2000 with SP 2 and updates.
PDC has exhange 2000 with all service packs. I think it was set up
using the AD tool. I ran dcdiag.exe on both machines
and here were the results. When I try to replicate the NTDS settings to
PDC2 I get an error.
Both are added as servers in Default-First-Name in actived directory
manager.
PDC says, "The naming context is in the process of being removed or is
not replicated from the specified server"
PDC2 says "The following RPC server is not available" (RPC running as a
service)
Any advise on infastructure or what is going wrong, I would be great!
Thanks!
