I already posted this one to W2K diskussion group. Nobody replied. I think it is an AD issue but it affects mainly our E2K-Server. So maybe someone here has an idea. This really drives me crazy...
Situation: ---------- Two 2K-AD-Servers (one of them Exchange and global catalogue server). Both upgraded from NT half a year ago, One Site, one Domain. 15 W2K and one XP clients. Problem: -------- The Exchange/global catalogue server stands about every 10 minutes for about 45 seconds. No response on any click, nor it is possible to work with outlook 'on' that server for the 45 seconds. According to the event log I had a couple of issues with user rights in local security (power user etc.) (SceCli every 8 minutes). I followed the Microsoft guides and removed the group entries from local security policy. No I don't have any event log entries anymore, but the problem persists. speculation of Cause/Solution? ------------------------------ I guess that there is still a problem with AD. On the second server I can see issues in the AD replication monitor for the first server. Objects could not be replicated due to access failure. On the Exchange/global catalogue server in the registry in HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\ControlSet001\Services\NtFrs\Parameters\Replica Sets\d5c32359-0ee1-42a9-8bac72a28682a096 I found a wrong path for ...\sysvol\domain. It points to an non existing directory. So it seems that active directory is not able to find active directory. I did not want to correct it via the registry. There must be a better way to correct wrong path settings for the active directory container. Here is the main question ------------------------- I appreciate any hint how to fix the ntfrs/AD settings on that machine. Where are path settings stored? Is it necessary to use DC promo to remove and add the server from/to the domain or is there an easier way to fix it?
