I have a Win2K domain (company.local) Made up of 4
physical locations, set up in a hub-and-spoke WAN topology
using frame relay. The corporate HQ is the hub and the
other 3 locations are remote offices. Each of the four
offices have a DC. It is all one domain, no sub-domains.
In order to correct problems with users at one office
having their logon script run from a remote office, I have
setup each location as a site, associated the appropriate
subnet with each site, moved the appropriate DC to it's
site and created 3 site links, as follows: HQ-Remote1, HQ-
Remote2, and HQ-Remote3. I deleted the Default Site Link.
I bridged all site links and ignored schedule.
Replication seems to be working okay, but I'm not sure
that I have not missed something. Can't find clear
instruction or example that fits my situation.
DCDIAG /FIX indicates all is okay. REPADMIN /SHOWREPS run
on each of the 4 DC's shows successful replications with
the other 3 DC's, but only the HQ DC and one remote DC
show anything for "outbound neighbors for change
notification". If I try to force replication, I get a
dialog box that says something about the DC's in being in
different sites, and that replication will be scheduled
later. Have I missed something?
 
Hello,

No, it doesn't seem like you have missed anything. The pop-up message you
are getting when forcing replication occurs by default. It sounds like
your domain is in pretty good shape.
