From: kj [SBS MVP] on
OK, for starters server 1 should have both server1 and server2 for DNS
client configurations

Server 2 should have server 2 and server1 for DNS client settings ( both in
repesctive orders)

Do you have WINS replication configured? If not you probably want to settle
on one WINS server or setup WINS replication and add Secondary WINS servers
to both DCs.

SBS server has ISMserv (Intersite messaging service) disabled by default.
You should go into services and enable and start this service ( make sure
its's running on both DCs). Is the other server a windows 2000 server or
something more recent?

Right not your DCs are not replicating well. How long has this configuration
existed?

Server 2 appears to have a second NIC that is not connected. If true it's
better to disable it. Later OS versions can have binding order problems in
DCs with two or more enabled NICs.

After that, reboot the SBS server, run a fresh dcdiag, and also a "repadmin
/replsummary"

btw, is this SBS 2003 or SBS 2008?

Done. I scheduled the restart for the early morning because those
servers are heavily used until midnight. I noticed that some dcdiag
issues were resolved (even though i did not yet restart). The problem
that remains now is the time service issue.

Done. I verified the configuration, still getting errors with dcdiag
though. Let's see what happens after the restart tonight.

I couldn't find this service (or any variations for the name) on SBS.
I found it on the member server (Intersite Messaging) and it was
already started. Any idea why it is not showing in the list of
services?

It is disabled. I am using Windows 2003 SBS and R1

Yikes. So, 180 days is a critical time in which to ensure replicaiton
completes.

In the repadmin command, it's more important when it was last successfull
not the current fail.

Do a repadmin /showrepl and post the entire unedited output.

Missing the ismserv is going to continue to be an issue. May be the root of
the problem for that matter.

first try a net start ismserv & post the output

- If it fails, check the %windir% \system32 directory for the ism*.* files
( should be four of them ). If they are there then its possible the dll's
need to be reregistered. You might consider putting in a call to MS support
for this issue.

There is a 180 day "tombstone lifetime" that is essential that you get this
resolved and it sounds like you are getting close to this time frame
already. ( if not already exceeded).

Do you have the two locations defined as seperate AD sites with unique
subnets? ( if you do not have them defined, do not do it until MS instructed
or until you get replication resolved.)

Actually I don't think there was a big problem with replication,
otherwise i would've probably noticed. In the "File Replication
Service" section of the event viewer the errors are months apart, but
anyway I am posting the results of the replication below.

I did "ismserv /install" and now it shows in the list of services. I
also started the newly installed service afterwards. DCDiag still
shows the same errors. I will post them separately shortly. This
should make the thread easier to follow (I hope)

I am not sure what this "tombstone" is. I noticed in the WINS server
there were entries marked as "tombstones". I deleted those entries
that I know belong to computers external to our organization.
