The Solution Rating System

With so many solutions, how can you tell which solutions are most likely to help you and which ones are not? To provide you with a tool to use, we rate our solutions based on various elements that most accurately determine if a solution is a quality solution. To explain what factors affect the solution rating, here are the elements we take into consideration when formulating our solution rating.

  • The Grade of the Solution
  • The Zone Rank of the Expert Providing the Solution
  • The Number of Author and Expert Comments
  • The Number of Experts Contributing
  • The Feedback of the Community

Your Input Matters
Because of the way the system is set up, the most important variable in this equation is you. As a member of Experts Exchange, you are able to cast your vote on the quality of the solutions in regard to how complete, accurate, helpful and easy to understand each solution is. When you provide your feedback, each rating is adjusted accordingly. So, if you see a solution that has a poor rating that you think is a good solution, let us know by rating it. As you do, the rating will be adjusted and will become more accurate for other members of our site.

If you have any suggestions that you would like to make for our rating system, please ask a question in the Suggestions Zone of Community Support.

Thank you!

Event Id 13508: The File Replication Service is having trouble enabling replication...

Asked by Halonix666 in Miscellaneous Networking, Domain Name Service (DNS)

Tags: trouble, having, service, file, enabling

I have a windows 2000 network running 4 domain controllers. 3 on the main site and one in another site. Server 2 is DNM, and SM, server 1 is everything else. Both have the Global Catalog. Server 3 is just another DC with the global catalog. Server 4 in the other site is another DC with the GC. Ever server has a DNS server on it except server 3, and none are configured to look at themselves for domain name lookup in the primary dns field.

Every morning I get this error message
Event Id: 13508
Source: NtFrs

The File Replication Service is having trouble enabling replication from AZGOV-DC2 to AZGOV-DC1 for c:\windows\sysvol\domain using the DNS name azgov-dc2.azgov.state.az.us. FRS will keep retrying.
 Following are some of the reasons you would see this warning.
 
 [1] FRS can not correctly resolve the DNS name azgov-dc2.azgov.state.az.us from this computer.
 [2] FRS is not running on azgov-dc2.azgov.state.az.us.
 [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.

According to MS this message is usually followed by a 13509 to show that communication was finally made, but I never see that message. Sysvol replicatoin seems to be working but I am concerned that there might be something else wrong here. I can nslookup every server from any other server, and dns isnt reporting any errors or anything. All the Host records and ptr's are in the dns database, so I dont see how it could be a dns issue. Anybody have any idea?
