Synchronization OU between sites

Hi,
It is possible to shorten synchronization time to same object? I want to
synchronize changes in some OU like passwords without delay between sites.
If I good remember I passwords are synchronized at once.

Best regards,
Xentri

Hello Xentri,

You have to enable urgetn replciation between the sites, so this occurs the
same as intra-site, see "Urgent Replication":

Also option is on Windows server 2003 to use:

This additional tab allows you to choose the DC where the password will be
set.

Meinolf is right on but I would urge some caution. This will enable ALL
replication, so if you have the bandwidth you are good to go but if not then
you could create trouble.

If this is only for passwords replication, what is the need? The system
manages password sync in such a manner that if you change your password at
one location and it hasn't replicated in a different site yet, the
authenticating dc sends the request back to the PDCe which should have the
changed password. Thereby not needing all dc's to have the change
immediately.

Thank you for help, but unfortunately I described problem no so good.

Scenario is:
I have software which store their objects in Active Directory (only one OU).
That software extend schema. Client of this software connect to nearest DC. I
need replicate object from this OU immediately after some changes appear on
object, like urgent replication.

Is it possible to add this OU to urgent replication ? If not maybe it is
possible to add some attribute to urgent replication ?


Best regards,
Xentri

Hello Xentri,

You can replicate a single object with repadmin from the command line:

repadmin /replsingleobj <DSA_LIST> <Source_DSA_Name> <obj dn>

Thank you very mucha Meinolf Weber for tip.

> repadmin /replsingleobj <DSA_LIST> <Source_DSA_Name> <obj dn>

If I point certain OU will repadmin replicate each object below that OU ?

Best regards,
Xentri

Hello Xentri,

/replsingleobj will replicate one object, not a complete tree.
