If I remember correctly you need at least the "DS-Replication-Monitor-Topology" extended right. I assume your elevated account is member of the enterprise admins which have this right to manage replication throughout AD or a member of domain admins which have this right to manage replication for the DCs that belong to the same domain as the domain admins group

At any rate, I'm getting this error when I run repadmin /showrepl dcname. Everything I've looked up points to Q329860 which isn't relevant in this case. I get this error under my standard user account but works fine for my elevated account. So, I'm curious if anyone has tracked down what permissions are required to run /showrepl or /replsum?
