Thank you for posting the dcdiag. What alerts me that this is more than likely a DNS resolution issue is the following error:
" Warning: DsGetDcName returned information for
\\server.mydomain.local, when we were trying to reach SERVER2"
Do you have any responses to my questions? Event log errors, ipconfig, and Site configuration are important to better help.
This was part of the reason I asked for an ipconfig /all. Otherwise, if you are not able to post it, the following can cause resolution and replication issues.
1. Using an external or some other DNS server than the internal DC/DNS servers.
- Make sure all DCs, member servers and workstations are only using the internal DNS servers in their IP properties. If they are using the ISP's DNS server, the router/gateway IP address as a DNS server, or any other DNS server that does not host your mydomain.local zone, expect problems.
2. Multihomed DCs. This is a DC with more than one NIC active not teamed, more than one IP on one NIC, and/or RRAS is installed.
3. Firewall blocks. Trying to open specific ports for domain communications is difficult. The recommendation is to allow all inbound-outbound. If you are not sure if any ports are being blocked, you can use PortQuery, a free download from Microsoft, to test AD ports and communications.
4. Using ADSL. ADSL lines using PPPoE, use an MTU 1492 rather than the normal 1500. This causes LDAP communication issues.
I hope that helps.
