Hi,
The PDC Emulator FSMO is
required in both modes! In mixed mode the replication model is different (LAN
MAnager) when replicating with older DCs (BDCs)
In both mixed and native
mode:
* Time sync for the
domain/forest
* Primary source for GPO
edits
* Pwd change for legacy clients
without the directory services client
* Central repository for
passwords when another DC needs to check the password when a user provided a
wrong password against that DC
* Participates in immediate
replication for certain events through an RPC call
* Acts as the master DC for BDCs
(only in mixed mode) for replication
* Provides directory updates to
DFS root servers when Root Scalability is disabled
At the moment I can't think of
anything else, but I'm sure if there's more the other guys will add
comments
Cheers,
jorge

Subject: [ActiveDir] PDC emulator in Native mode
Hi,
What happened to the PDC Emulator Role if we move from mixed mode to native
mode.
Is the PDC Emulator is required in Native mode... ?
and if required then what will it do and what changes in the
functional behaviour of it ?
Best-
Manjeet
