    Hi All,

    I have environment with 400DC on my forest.

    A week back i have enabled strict replication on GPO level and modified the registry setting using script to Strict replication Dword value 0 to 1 for my all DC.

    but yesterday i have found some of the DC's running with loose replication! and again i have enabled manually for strict replication by modifying value 1.

    and today again the couple of server running with loose replication..:(

    have searching event id 560 on the security log  with object access "REGEDIT" but cant find anything?

    pls help me to get this fixed?

    Thanks,
    Vinay

    Hi Vinay ,

    Make sure you run windows 2003 sp1 at the minimum to enalbe the strict replication

    It is best practice to use repadmin rather than directly modifying the registry ,

    repadmin /regkey DC_LIST {+|-} key

     

     If you are using registry you need to configure the Strict Replication Consistency under the below registry .



    HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\NTDS\Parameters
