Hi Matt,
I have tested the population of the serverReference attribute in the
NTDSSettings object and I've confirmed that it does not get populated by
Windows.
Anyways, I've consulted with the PG and they confirmed my findings and pointed
me to [MS-DRSR] 4.1.1.2.3 " CreateNtdsDsa" where the pseudo code states:
...
/* serverReference attribute is not updated here; instead, it is used
* to find the computer object of the DC so that the replication SPN
* can be added to the DC's computer object. */
sl := ENTINF_GetValue(e, serverReference, prefixTable)
ENTINF_SetValue(e, serverReference, null, prefixTable) ...
In conclusion, the ServerReference attribute for nTDSDSA Object should not be
updated at the NTDSSettings level but only at the server object level.
Thanks and regards,
Sebastian
