Subject: RE: [ActiveDir] [OT] Alert when trying to force replication
across sites
In my testing, forcing it still forces it even though that error pops. I have a little tool (adqueueloop) that will display the replication queue in near real time and doing that force always throws something into the replication queue. I was actually quite surprised to see that when working with the Product team on the AD FAQ a while back and I was testing it.
There may be some reason MS put that message up there that I have never configured on my machines or possibly they want to cover against the possibility that maybe the sites are out of touch except for during the scheduled windows say you have network windows that open up at certain times. In that case the queued request would sit in the queue until it could be completed.

I'm trying to fix an error with the pony DHCP server in windows, but in the section of the "detailed" instructions from the MS site, im getting an odd alert.
I am trying to force replication from one branch office to another. The schedule is once every two hours, and I cant be arsed to wait. The error says that;
"one or more of these active directory connections are between domain controllers in different sites and cannot be replicated immediately. Active Directory will replicate these connections at the next opportunity"
...which is nice.
Now, the chances are that the replication will happen anyway before I can work out the cause of this alert box, but im still interested in knowing why I cant force a replication across sites. I tried it between two AD servers within the same site, and it works fine.
Any ideas ?
