LDIFDE config file???
How do I ensure that strict replication consistency is enabled for newly promoted domain controllers?
I have attempted to use the documentation available from Microsoft here: http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc949134(WS.10).aspx#BKMK_Ensure_Strict.
I created a file as mentioned in the documentation, however I continue to receive an error every time I try to run the command: ldifde -i -f <Path>\<FileName>
The error is in the code snippet below. I have tried variations of removing whitespace and just succeed in getting different error messages.
Any help would be much appreciated.
FYI - In addition to the link above, I also used the following link to attempt to solve the issue myself prior to posting:

Would be interesting to see the content of the log file though?
"specify the log file path via the -j option."

Using below link you can enable strict replication consistency & can also find whether strict replication has been enabled or not.

Pete,
I was the one to post that solution actually. :-)
I have tried the -j option a few times, every time I receive the error "Unable to open log file." It doesn't seem to matter what path I use for the log file or if the file already exists or not.
Awinish,
The links listed show me how to turn it on on a case by case basis. I already completed that, I want to enable this for the domain so any new DC's automatically have it enabled.

Was going to ask if you'd tried that yet... :) lol
Nevermind!
