FRS error 13508 without 13509

I had an earlier post concerning setting permissions on a shared folder, it seems that i've opened a larger can of worms.  I have a PDC in xcity, ohio, I recently set up 2 other domain controllers for the same domain in xcity, michigan and ycity, ohio.  The one in michigan is giving me the 13508 error and is the one i am having problems, setting permissions, mapping drives, having all workstations show up in network neighborhood etc.  I checked the NTDS settings on the problem DC and it shows that it is replicating TO the PDC and nothing in the replicate from.  Are all my issues coming from the FRS or is it a router/network issue.  I can ping the FQDN of the PDC and everything works fine that way.  I run Repadmin /showres and everything seems to complete successfully.   I am very frustrated that this isn't working. Have the one set up in ycity, ohio exactly the same role and everything works fine.  Please help and thanks in advance for your help

Okay, let me see if i can explain better.  On the secondary domain controller i have in my branch office.  DNS for that server is set to use the PDC at home datacenter as primary DNS and then the local ISP as secondary DNS.  In the DHCP scope it hands its IP as primary and the PDC as secondary. Netbios is set to default. Should i use netbios over TCP/IP?  I did get a KCC error event ID 1925, also getting userenv error event ID 1054, 1030, 1006.  No you did not misunderstand.. WHen i go to NTDS settings in S&S, under the secondary controller that i am having the issue with, it has nothing in the replicate from, but in the replicate to it has my primary domain controller, Is there a way to post screenshots on here?  there is an A record for the secondary domain controller on the DNS for the PDC,not sure what SRV record is.  Hope this helps clarify
Remove your ISP dns from your tcp/ip settings
yes you need netbios over tcp but if you have an internet face NIC, you should disable it on external NIC
If KCC couldn't generate connection object (the  entry you see in Sites&Services), incoming replication won't happen. what is the desc. in KCC error?
SRV records are those under _mcdcs zone. SRV records tell client where to get a particular service, such ldap

To manually trigger KCC, right click "NTDS settings", all tasks\check replication topology
To manually create a connection object instead of letting KCC do it, right click, new, connection (but I prefer KCC generating unless you have special needs. and even you can manually create a connection, it won't work with the underlying problem unsolved.)

A "netdiag /v> netdiag.txt" and "dcdiag /v>dcdiag.txt" will help you as well.
I manually created that connection to my primary domain controller, then manually replicated it.  However as you said it doesn't mean anything. I took the ISP out of my DNS record.  I only have 1 Nic active.  The NTDS replication error i get is

" Active Directory Could not use DNS to resolve the OP address of the source domain controller listed below. To maintain the consistency of security groups, group policy, user and computers and their passwords, Active Directory successfully replicated using the Netbios or fully qualified computer name of the source domain controller.

Invalid DNS configuration may be affecting other essential operation on member computers, domain controllers or application servers in this AD forest including logon authentication or access to network resources.

you should immediately resolve this DNS configuration error so that this domain controller can resolve the IP address of the source domain controller using DNS."


This was before i changed the DNS.  My DNS is now, my SDC as my primary DNS and my PDC as my secondary DNS.

WHen i try to check replication topology i get " The following error occurred during the attempt to contact the domain controller: The directory property cannot be found in the cache, having manually created the connection, the PDC shows up in the replicate from and replicate to, now
ran DSDIAG and this is the output

for sure we still have DNS issue here. Try this
1. use only one DNS server on JAsouthfs. Use your the one that Jane uses
2. make sure zone ja.local and _msdcs.ja.local are accepting dynamic updates
3. verify that A record jashouthfs.ja.local is correct on the only DNS server we are using
4. remove everything under _msdcs.ja.local, restart netlogon service on all DCs
    (it's very safe to do so despite the fact it appears scarry. if you are uncomfortable with this, remove everything that points to jasouthfs in _msdcs zone, then restart netlogon service, which should register all SRV records again for you)
just to clarify, Use the IP of the PDC for the primary DNS of the JAsouthfs and leave secondary empty, and delete everything in _msdcs.ja.local on both servers.  Another thing i should point out after digging a little.  The jasouthfs is the remote DC and DNS is not installed on it, the Jane is the PDC and has DNS but it is set as a primary zone and not AD-integrated.  Should i rectify this situation prior to continuing?
it's ok to have non-ad-integrated zone and has only one DNS server. In multiple dns server case, remove things on primary DNS and the deletion should be replicated out. And yes use PDC as primary DNS and leave secondary empty.
I"ve done everything you've suggest and i'm still getting DNS type errors and still can't get it to let me add users to a shared drive, still gives me replication errors.  I don't know why this is acting like this. I have another one set up and a different remote location identical and there are no issues.  Anything else you think i can try?

ok I checked back the netdiag result and above caught my eyes. See if 257338 helps.
http://support.microsoft.com/?kbid=257338
I ran repadmin /showreps %upstreamcomputer% and also for downstream to check replication and i get same error on both: "[d:\r2\ds\adam\src\util\repadmin\repbind.c, 207]  LDAP error 81 (server Down) WIn32 error 58
heres a strange twist, it seems when i go to network places and select the JA domain, all the workstations show up.  If i find the secondary DC that is giving me issues and go into it and access the share, I can right click on it go properties and then security.  If i type a name and then hit check name, boom, pops right up.  But if i click advanced..it times outs and locks up, If i access the same share by going through my computer and go to security, it can't find the name either way and locks up.  What the heck is goin on..  Real close to wiping that server and starting over
