What to expect from repadmin (how to track AD replication)?

-

according article (http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/bb125224.aspx)
after each step of setup.com /xxxxxx, track progress of ad replication using "active directory replication monitor tool" (replmon.exe).

however, since have dc in w2k , new dc in ws2k8 , can't use replmon.exe.  learnt use repadmin.exe instead.  i've tried
repadmin /showrepl
have no idea expect output.

mean, how know if replication has started or not, , if "setup.com /xxxx" has effects on other dc?

ps: had searched web see if there's anything, found exact copy-n-paste microsoft articles: tell "to wait permissions replicate before continuing" (sic)  how long?  minute?  ten minutes or what?

hello horinius,

in replmon can rightclick partition or server , choose "synchronize............". repadmin use repadmin /syncall or check out additional options in link provided before under examples section.

btw, not recommended install exchange 2007 on dc. better use a member server that. move 5 fsmo roles 2008 dc if not done , make global catalog server. dns shoudl run on 2008 dc. fsmo roles should been on newest os dc, additional create new group in ad.

Edit Group Policy

i have pc has power settings pushed out default domain policy in ad environment. of course on local machine "some settings managed system adminstrator". the machine temporarily no longer in contact domain controller (it's been physically moved , not on same network now) can't updated gpo settings. i believe if edit local group policy won't make difference because of group policy processing , precedence. since it's temporary away ad network, still want use settings of ad user. is there somewhere in registry stored can edit power plan manually until can sync domain? (i need prevent sleeping while plugged in - it's set 1 hour) thanks! allen crist i found site: http://gpsearch.azurewebsites.net/#7916 i able add policy to hkey_local_machine\software\policies\microsoft\power using specs found on site. looks solved issue. i'll report if didn't. thanks! allen crist ...
