RE: Directory Synchronization problem
Try making a small change on the source site to a mailbox e.g. add an Address field and do a Pull and see what you get. If that doesn't work then I would suggest you have a blockage probably on the DS mailbox in the destination site. Do a Track Message on the Source site and use the Advanced Search-Sent by Exchange Server-Directory Service options. Find out where the DR request-replies are getting to.

We have several location who access information from the Corporate office. My problem is that one of the servers is not getting an updated global address list from Corporate. When I checked the server in the remote location, the Directory Synchronization service has stopped. When I tried to restart it I kept getting error 2140. I checked TechNet and tried the resolution for this error based on the article there and the problem is not resolved. Does anyone have any recommendations? Thank you for any help.

RE: Directory Synchronization problem
Kevin, I created a mailbox on the destination site and did a push and I did not see it on the source site. I did a pull on the source site and the mailbox could be seen. I then did the tracking like you suggested and the DR- request-replies are getting to the Private Information store of the destination site. There are several remote sites and where as the size of the messages going to the other sites are below 10k the ones to the problem site goes to as much as 440k. I do not know if this is of any significance. Thanks for all your help so far. Do you have anymore suggestions?

RE: Directory Synchronization problem
Right, my assumption is probably correct. The DR messages, although they are getting to the DR mailbox on the out-of-date server, are not being processed by it's DS. Hence, when you make a request from the out-of-date server you are getting a lot more data, because quite simply the out-of-date server is asking for data going back further.
