You need to start providing more information.
I looked through the previous thread and you said:
" so I decided to look at some other logs. In one I discovered that the DC's hadn't
replicated in a month"
a) What log did you look in?
Event Viewer-File Replication.
b) What did you see (exactly)?
Warning--Source NtFrs--Event 13508
Warning-NtFrs-13516
Warning-NtFrs-13501
Repeatedly
c) What isn't replicating? AD? Sysvol?
Nothing, as far as I can tell.
d) Is this a two-way, or one-way replication problem?
Etc
While testing The "PDC" "Dad" gets the error replicating from "Mom", MoM
replicates OK from "Dad".
Then you said:
" the Domain thinks the FISMO roles are invalid"
a) How did you come to this conclusion? What are you seeing?
This appeared in one of the error messages in Event Viewer.
b) What do you mean by FSMO roles are "invalid"? They can't be contacted? They
point to non-existant servers?
"Since the last replication is over a month, Active Directory believes
the FSMO roles are invalid" is the message in the error message.
Now you are saying
"I am seeing errors 1753 and 1256"
a) Where are you seeing these errors?
b) Is there any accompanying error text?
When I do a "DCDIAG" on the one that hasn't been replicated from (Mom)

The errors are all in the File Replication Event Log on "Dad".
