Alright, I'm noticing something that I think is odd and I was wondering if I'm just losing it.
We have an multi-domain empty root forest structure and I'm the DA of one of those child domains. Also, our network is not fully routed. (Although my domain is fully routed.) I have a few DCs where the replication seems to be odd. Using sites and services, the NTDS settings displays replication partners: DC01 replicates with DC02, RDC01 DC02 replicates with DC01, DC03, DC04, RDC01 DC03 replicates only with DC01 DC04 replicates with DC01 RDC01 replicates with DC01, DC02, (and three other domain's) DC01, DC02 and RDC01 are all in the same site, DC03 and DC04 are in different sites. What I'm confused about is why DC03 and DC04 would have NTDS settings for DC01 while DC01 doesn't have NTDS settings for those two domain controllers? DC01 holds all domain level FSMO roles as well. Replication is working, I'm just confused as to why this would be display liked this. I thought the NTDS settings were bidirectional and thus should have entries on both servers. Obviously I don't know enough about replication and NTDS settings.
