results from, repadmin on PSDC1 seems to indicate successful replication
(lancco.root is an empty root domain for the forest). ECPDC is not listed as
an outbound neighbor, I'm not sure what that implies. I did not see any
duplicate connections.

Ok Cindy, with this information we know your time information is ok or
else ECPDC couldn't pull AD replication across.
However you also want a repadmin /showreps from the other side to make
sure that the other DC's can resolve and pull data from ECPDC. Anytime
you are checking replication, you have to check both side, checking one
side only tells you half the story.
This is because AD and FRS replication is not one connection going both
ways but actually two connections, both of them pull. So you can
actually have one DC pulling from another ok but not vice versa.
So go to PSDC1 and run the same showreps command to verify that you see
successful replications being pulled from ECPDC.
You may have a case where some data needed hasn't made it back to the
rest of the forest so it isn't allowing you to pull the NTFRS data.
Also we may have to look at the seeding server (if it is other than
PSDC1) and verify that it is replicating with the rest of the
domain/forest ok.
There was also one post I saw where it mentioned duplicate connections.
I.E. Someone may have manually created a connection between ECPDC and
PSDC1. If that is the case I think I would remove it for now and see if
we can get the topology to correct itself.

Subject: RE: [ActiveDir] sysvol not replicating
This is probably a silly question, but you have applied all of the
latest SP's and hotfixes correct and this machine isn't sitting at like
SP1 or something? There are a ton of fixes for FRS out there. Other than
that I would be looking at DNS very carefully and also checking regular
replication (repadmin /showreps) to make sure that was working as well.

Subject: [ActiveDir] sysvol not replicating
Two days ago a consulting firm upgraded a BDC at a remote location to
Windows 2000. After the upgrade users had all types of trouble
connecting. It seems the sysvol is not replicating because the
Do_Not_Remove_NtFrs_PreInstall_Directory, Policies directory, and
Scripts directory do not exist on the remote server in either the
sysvol\domain or the sysvol\sysvol directory. The rest of AD seems to be
replicating fine. Can I simply copy those directories from one of my DCs
to the DC in the remote location? Thanks
