Question : Replication errors on new Windows 2008 RC DC's

Hello,

I added two new Windows Server 2008 RC domain controllers into our single forest, single domain AD environment last night.  The other two DC’s are running Windows 2003.  
The dcpromo process and initial replication seemed to go OK, but since then, I am getting replication errors on the new Windows 2008 domain controllers.  
I have two sites in AD.  The Windows 2003 servers are set to replicate across the sites, and each Windows 2008 server is shown having a replication link with its local Windows 2003 server.  
Running dcdiag on one of the new Windows 2008 DC’s shows the following errors:
Directory Server Diagnosis

Performing initial setup:
   Trying to find home server...
   Home Server = wegdc001

DNS zones are also not replicating to the new Windows 2008 DC’s.

Please help.

Thanks!

Answer : Replication errors on new Windows 2008 RC DC's

Why not check the conditions separately?

So, something like this:

if not exist "c:\source\*.*" (
  echo Source not found.
  exit /b
)
if not exist " \\server\share\mydestination\" (
  echo Destination not found.
  exit /b
)
copy "c:\source\*.*" \\server\share\mydestination" /v
if errorlevel 1 (
  echo Errors in copy / verify
  exit /b
)
