Hi Graham,

I think you have to run replication among your DCs. You can use AD Sites and
Services to do that. If still there is no replication object, you can
create using this snap-in. And then, please update service pack to the
newest one.

Hi Graham,

I'm by no means an expert in this subject matter Directory Service
Replication, but I'll try to assist you to the best of my ability. I
believe Irwin's posting is correct, you need to run replication to your
other DC's. See the following article reference link below for more
information.
