I just ran across this:
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/875495 According to this article it looks like the server will automatically disable inbound and outbound replication under certain circumstances if it detects a USN rollback. Which can be seen by event IDs 1113 and 1115.

Time delta wouldn't do this.

It ended up being that Inbound and Outbound replication on the DC was disabled which was shown by REPADMIN /SHOWREPS /V: DC Options: DISABLE_INBOUND_REPL DISABLE_OUTBOUND_REPL I enabled them and that seems to have fixed the problem. From what I am told by the onsite admin he was having some kind of issue with this DC yesterday and the server was eventually rebooted. The Netlogon and the Windows Time service didn't start after reboot and were manually started this morning around 6am (~9 hours later). My question is, if these 2 services didn't start. Would that cause something to flip the replication status to disabled? I don't think so, but I wanted to get the thoughts of the group here.
