SYMPTOMS
If you are replicating with Transaction Method on, and you have Membership Services installed, you may notice that some of your files that have No Access permissions do not reach the destination directory. When you install the Membership Broker (the broker portion of MBS), the following registry entry is added:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\SecRepl\DefaultAccount
The value is set to the user account "Administrator." Normally, if the Content Replication System (CRS) is unable to find a valid SID to assign to the No Access permission at the target computer, it will strip all ACL values and set Full Control permissions to the Default Account. Unless the CRS service account is Administrator (not recommended) CRS will lose permissions to this file and will be unable to rename the file from the CRSTemp directory into the destination directory.
RESOLUTION
Set the Default Account to the Administrators group, or a group that both the CRS Service account and a local administrator belong to. To change the Default Account:
- Start Registry Editor (Regedt32.exe or Regedit.exe, depending on your version of Windows NT).
Select the following registry entry and press ENTER:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\SecRepl\DefaultAccount- Edit the data value of the entry to the desired group and click OK.
NOTE: This behavior is also for pre-Site Server versions of CRS. As of Site Server release and SP2 for MCIS, the DefaultAccount registry key will be null and void. Default behavior will be to assign the Well Known SID entry of Administrators group.
STATUS
