If you want to access XP/2003 machine from win2000 you'll need to install on it RDP client software: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/925876 The opposite is possible only in the case win2000 is server with terminal services enabled.

I'll not comment the scale of the project - Microsoft's local branch was involved - thats not "our" idea. This is really very large project - about 500 000 users will use the system. Here is a DCDIAG log: ==================================================== ......................... OUR-BAD-DC passed test Replications Starting test: NCSecDesc .........................

Robocopy works beter in case of more than 1000 DCs (as Microsoft describe) REPADMIN /BIND direct_repl_partnes - the operation succeedes. I made some network sniffing but I don't uderstand that RPC communication. When I try to do replication - there is bidirectional network traffic - from the BADDC to HUB DC and opposite. But a few seconds after the RPC call is cancelled. In the sniff result somethimes RPC BIND request is missing?!? This problem occures only with the domain partition...as example dc=configuration,dc=domain,dc=net naming context replicates perfectly! I did more investigation: created one "foo" computer account in the HUB DC. I cannot replicate this change to the bad dc - "RPC was cancelled...." BUT if I use REPADMIN /REPLSINGLEOBJ our-bad-dc source_dsa_GUID "foo_wks_account_dn" -> IT REPLICATES?!?!? Confusing...eah?

Hi all! Two weeks ago we started to have replication problems. We have more than 1050 domain controllers, each in separate office branch (one site for each DC). There is a HUB site, where four DCs are situated. Each of them is Bridgehead. Each branch has a cisco 1711 router which make VPN connection to the HUB office. WAN Speed: 1 MBit/s download; 128KBit/s upload - ADSL. On some servers when you try to replicate the domain naming context (dc=ourdomain,dc=net) we get "DS_REPLICA SYNC FAILED: The remote procedure call was cancelled". We've installed http://support.microsoft.com/kb/898060/en , but still no luck. There are no firewalls turned on. Operating system: Windows Server 2003 Std. with SP1. Anyone can help?
