Well, I came in this morning and they all say they're ready if I look in
RootDSE, but, in one site, querying another domain (in aduc) just returns the contacts
for that domain. In the other sites, they're still not finding a GC.

I read your post to say, Hi, I got the 1119 but the GCs are responding
as GCs even though the RootDSE says they are. My one thought is... Have they been
rebooted since the 1119?

Subject: [ActiveDir] GC Promotion Problems
I've got a test lab setup with 11 DCs mirroring a production
environment. The lab is setup on one box using MS Virtual Server. The host is an 8 way
16Gig machine, it can handle the load fine. Routing between the three subnets is
virtualized with RRAS and appears to work fine.
That said, I can't get the GCs promoted right. I just noticed this
problem today, following a full LDIF import of our environment (close to 2 million
objects across three domains). I successfully promoted one, and when I ldp against
RootDSE, isGlobalCatalogReady = True. For the rest of the DCs, they log that they're
GCs in the event log, but isGlobalCatalogReady = False.
When I goto add an object from another domain into a group, for
example, I use AD U & C. After selecting the root domain, the listbox which would
usually contain the principals int he domain says "No objects are available for this
location.". I tried selecting the other of the two domains, and it just sits with the
flashlight searching.
DCDiag and NetDiag passes all tests on each DC, and replication is
clearly working given all the objects imported across the board.
Any suggestions for resolving this?
Thanks,
Brian Desmond
