Hmm that seems kind of small to turn off the KCC. I wouldn't do it myself. In fact we have about 500 sites defined, 375 DC's spread across them, and nine domains. Most of the sites have a DC from one of the five main domains though. If you have a hub and spoke topology and the site links are configured properly and you have site transitivity turned off you shouldn't have an issue.
Manually generating your topology is an evil evil thing. Also where did the MS advice come from? Not trying to smash MS but there are only a few people from MS that I will listen to about AD right off. Mostly I make the person I am talking to prove what they are saying. Haven't found anyone in MCS yet with a really strong grasp, only decent. One main person in PSS - JD. Then of course you have the folks like Stuart Kwan and Dave Trulli. joe -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Jef Kazimer Sent: Thursday, September 04, 2003 10:51 AM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: [ActiveDir] Manual Replication - Any suggestions? I'm currently working at a company where we have 115 international sites, and 3 domains. The KCC and ISTG are working sub-optimal, and it seems on MS's advice we are going to calculate a manual replication connection model. Anyone have any experience this, and have any gotcha's we should be expecting?
