SUMMARY
To initiate a &quot;full sync&quot; of the Netlogon service on all of the backup and member servers under LAN Manager 2.1a or 2.2, the old trick of adding then deleting a user no longer works.



MORE INFORMATION
Here is how to accomplish a full sync on the PDC:


 * 1) Stop the server.
 * 2) Change a user (fullname, comment, something trivial).
 * 3) Delete (or rename) $(lanroot)\ACCOUNTS\UASCHG.LOG.
 * 4) Start Netlogon.

When the primary comes back up, it broadcasts a new serial number that is at least one higher than that of all the other servers. The other servers ask for the changes, and the primary responds with a NERR_SyncRequired because it has no record of that one change.

Additional query words: 2.10a 2.1a 2.20 2.2
