Kind ladies and gentlemen, once again I come forth seeking your
assistance...

A number of months ago we began integrating the systems of a company we
purchased with our own.  As part of the consolidation we added their
network to our existing AD as a child domain.  We consolidated email
servers to a single server.  Adding Exchange mailboxes for their child
domain accounts went smoothly.  Once the RUS to their child domain was
added, all the information replicated to the GAL just as I expected and
they had live mailboxes...  Now, for some reason RUS no longer appears
to be working properly with the child domain...  Changes to accounts
(spelling changes in names for instance) aren't reflected in the GAL and
new accounts in the child domain never appear in the GAL.  RUS appears
to be working fine within the main domain though.

I've tried to force an update and a rebuild in RUS, neither of which
made a difference.  

I've turned logging for MSExchangeAL (LDAP, Service Control, and Address
Book Synch) to Max, but I don't see any failures or warnings (just a lot
of informational messages which I've perused but can't discern anything
that looks like a problem).

I've verified connectivity to the remote child DC which is configured in
the RUS (MSKB 294222) by both short name and FQDN.   I even tried
changing to another DC in the child domain with no effect.  

I've removed and rebuilt the RUS to the child domain.  

I believe that the Exchange Enterprise Servers have proper permissions
all the way through the child domain per MSKB 328223 (they shouldn't
have changed since the initial accounts were put in, and everything
worked OK when I added the first 60 or so accounts)...    

I'm hoping someone else can give a suggestion as to where to investigate
next.  Everything looks like it SHOULD be working properly.

As always, thanks in advance for any assistance!
