Guest Axelar Posted December 14, 2007 Posted December 14, 2007 Hi I'm new to server admin and i need a few advices... I need to synchronise two servers, a SBS 2003 and a 2003 standard. System logs on the 2003 standard say synchronisation is impossible cause too much time has past since last succesfull synch (event id 2042). I've tried to use dcpromo on the 2003 standard to pass it in members mode instead of domain controlers, but it fails too. As you can see i'm far from being able to make it works, but the worse is i just don't know where to start to resolve this problem. what's the best way to ensure synchronisation ? All links, tips, advices, how-to are welcome :) Thanks in advance...

Guest Meinolf Weber Posted December 14, 2007 Posted December 14, 2007 Re: DC Promo failure... Hello Axelar, Seems that the 2003 was shutdown over the tombstone lifetime or could not replicate because of being disconnected from the domain. Have a look here: http://207.46.196.114/windowsserver/en/library/34c15446-b47f-4d51-8e4a-c14527060f901033.mspx?mfr=true Best regards Meinolf Weber Disclaimer: This posting is provided "AS IS" with no warranties, and confers no rights. ** Please do NOT email, only reply to Newsgroups ** HELP us help YOU!!! http://www.dts-l.org/goodpost.htm > Hi > > I'm new to server admin and i need a few advices... > > I need to synchronise two servers, a SBS 2003 and a 2003 standard. > System logs on the 2003 standard say synchronisation is impossible > cause too much time has past since last succesfull synch (event id > 2042).
