AD/DNS replication
What is a good way to determine if AD/DNS replication in an organization is working correctly?
I used dcdiag to perform some tests, but any error that comes out leads to nothing. e.g. dcdiag /test:Topology /s:servername gives the following output:
What is my next step to resolve the error messages?

- Hello,
if the suggestion from Marcin gives additional errors, please post more information about your domain, amount of DCs and with OS version, SP/patch level and how they are located, how DNS is configured and which kind of zones are used? Also run repadmin /showrepl on each DC and post the output here.
