We've had a multi-DC, multi-site AD lab in place for well over a year (still waiting for the green light to implement)and have found that sites could definitely help us manage replication traffic.� However, we also found problems with replication in our testing.� We have a need to urgently replicate account lockouts, clearing account lockouts, and when accounts are disabled.� From what we've read and seen these urgent replications do not occur intersite when the intersite replication window is closed unless we enable change notification on the DCs.� Enabling change notification appears to effectively circumvent the replication window entirely, thus eliminating the benefit of replication windows.� Granted, we still have the intersite traffic compressed.� We will be Windows Server 2003 and our user domain (roughly 150 sites) will be running in Windows Server 2003 functional level. Anyone else have this issue and how have you resolved this or have we been missing something all along?
