Hello Tom,
That doesn't answer the question why the Default Gateway address is
in the DNS server list of the NIC from server 2. And also after a
closer look now at the DNS list from server 1. The DG is either your
router or one NIC from your ISA server as far as in know, BUT not the
DNS server on the NIC. Remove it from there and try again, only for
testing, but for me it looks that the address is used to resolve DNS
configuration and you do not have a DNS server with that address.

Default gateway is only on SERVER1 - because it also serves as an
FTP server and ISA required it.
Hello Tom,
On DC2 you have the default gateway on the DNS server list. What's
the reason?

Hello Tom,
Please post an unedited ipconfig /all from both DC/DNS server.
Like the error states, it seems you have a DNS problem.

Here is what I get on the secondary DC...
Event Type: Warning
Event Source: NtFrs
Event Category: None
Event ID: 13508
Date: 2/4/2008
Time: 12:45:44 PM
User: N/A
Computer: SERVER2
Description:
The File Replication Service is having trouble enabling
replication
from
SERVER1 to SERVER2 for c:\windows\sysvol\domain using the DNS
name
server1.xxxxx.xxx. FRS will keep retrying.
Following are some of the reasons you would see this warning.
[1] FRS can not correctly resolve the DNS name server1.xxxxx.xxx
from
this
computer.
[2] FRS is not running on server1.xxxxx.xxx.
[3] The topology information in the Active Directory for this
replica
has
not yet replicated to all the Domain Controllers.
This event log message will appear once per connection, After
the
problem is fixed you will see another event log message
indicating
that the connection has been established.

You have no connectivity to other network segments.
If you configured the IP protocol manually then
you need to add at least one valid gateway.
DNS is primary and secondary DC's only, with ISA server using a
cache
only DNS.

Hello Tom,
Check both dc's with dcdiag and netdiag for errors. If you have
errors post the complete output from both machines. Replication
problems often have a not optimal DNS configuration as problem.
So please describe your DNS setup and post an unedited ipconfig
/all from both DC's here.

I have 2 DC's in my environment. When I make a change to my
logon.bat script on my main DC, it should automatically copy
that file to the second DC so that the logon scripts are the
same. I have noticed that it is not doing that on my network.
Any clues?
TIA,
-TRogers
