How to Synchronize Domains

Keywords: 	  NLTEST BDC domain synchronization

---

Question:

Any ideas on how to synchronize multiple domains?

Answer:

Look at the NLTEST program in the Resource Kit. It allows you to sync all BDC or just one of them.

	nltest /server:bdcname /repl
	nltest /server:pdcname /pdc_repl 

Another user reported the following:

I have the remote command service running on the PDC. I do the following command in my adduser program:

	RunWait("\\NTSERV01\NTRESKIT\RCMD.EXE","\\NTSERV01 NET ACCOUNTS /SYNCH")

I also put up a display box for 15 seconds telling the user "Waiting for domain to synchronize".

The RCMD.EXE is in the NT Resource Kit. I run it from the server in case user's don't have it locally.

Also see the function, wntDomainSync(s:server-name, i:request) -- Synchronizes domain controllers -- in Winbatch 2000a.
