Hmmm, interesting idea. Looking at the attribs on a connection object this should be ok though you might confuse something if you moved from a DC of one domain to a DC of another domain...
The attribute to look at to determine if the KCC is managing the object or not is the options attribute. If it a system generated connected option&1=1. If it is manually created option&1=0. You really shouldn't have to manually muck with them too much though. If you are looking to load balance connections look at ADLB. It will load balance for K3 and 2K, just read the instructions on the caveats. joe -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of David Adner Sent: Tuesday, July 20, 2004 1:43 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: [ActiveDir] Question about replication connection objects I know if I modify an <automatically generated> connection object, it gets renamed to its GUID and takes on the behavior of a manually created CO (meaning the KCC will no longer automatically maintain it). What if I move an <automatically generated> CO between DC's? The name doesn't get renamed, but does that mean it stayed automatic or is it now in effect manual? If it's the latter, how can I determine if it's behaving like a manual CO? Is there some attribute to look for?
