David, Dirk,   You folks should check out Q307319.  I've been fighting this issue since SP2.  The hotfix is exceptionally improved in this and several other areas.   Regards, -Christopher Paul -Senior Network Architect -LAN Technology Group -Sony Electronics Inc. -----Original Message----- From: David Lloyd [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Tuesday, April 23, 2002 3:06 AM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: RE: [ActiveDir] Sysvol problem We had a similar problem with the volume we were trying to replicate being to excessive for the FRS (File Replication Service). We use DFS to distribute build and application images throughout the organisation. The behaviour was that if we asked too much of it (say anything involving over 800MB in one hit such as what a new server may be subjected to when it first joins the replication model) the replication would fail and then hold up everything else behind it. Easy fix was to increase the size of the Staging Area from the default   Key:     "HKLM\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\NtFrs\Parameters" Entry:   "Staging Space Limit in KB" Value:   2000000 (to what suits!)   Also you may want to move it of the default location in the System Partition, this can be done with the following entry Key:     "HKLM\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\NtFrs\Parameters" Entry:   "Working Directory" Value    <local drive reference>     Cheers   David Lloyd Email:   [EMAIL PROTECTED]   -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] On Behalf Of Dirk Marshall Sent: 22 April 2002 22:36 To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: [ActiveDir] Sysvol problem   I have an AD replication problem between sites.  A new site was recently added.  I think I have the connection problem solved but the staging area is full and the sysvol directory has a lot of info in it.  My backups went from 6 G to 14 G over a couple weeks.  Basically I am trying to find a way to clear the staging area and sysvol directory.  I have not found a lot of info on this topic.  Any help would be appreciated   Thanks   Dirk --- Incoming mail is certified Virus Free.
