HOW TO FORCE AN AUTHORITATIVE (D4)


AND NON-AUTHORITATIVE (D2)
SYNCHRONIZATION
How to rebuild/recreate Active Directory SYSVOL and NETLOGON share… After domain
controller migration from old to new you may face this problem..
Before you begin, keep a backup of SYSVOL & NETLOGON on working DC. Make sure to
check the time settings between domain controllers.

Log on to working Domain Controller and Stop the File Replication Service.

Then open Registry editor (Regedit) and go to


HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\CurrentControlSet\Services\NtFrs\Parameters\Backup/Restore\Process
at Startup path and modify BurFlags attribute value to D4
And Start File Replication Service

Wait for File Replication event ID 13516

“The File Replication Service is no longer preventing the comptuer DCNAME from becoming
a domain controller. The system volume has been successfully initialized and the Netlogon
service has been noti ed that the system volume is now ready to be shared as SYSVOL.”
Now log in to problematic domain controller and stop the File Replication Service.

Go to
“HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\CurrentControlSet\Services\NtFrs\Parameters\Backup/Restore\Process
at Startup” path and modify BurFlags attribute and change the value to D2
Start File Replication Service

And wait for File Replication event ID 13516


“The File Replication Service is no longer preventing the comptuer DCNAME from becoming
a domain controller. The system volume has been successfully initialized and the Netlogon
service has been noti ed that the system volume is now ready to be shared as SYSVOL.”

Check the shared NETLOGON and SYSVOL and it contents.
