SYMPTOMS

When you try to start replication from a domain controller that runs Windows 2000 Advanced Server, you may receive the following error message about an event in the File Replication log:

Event Type: Error
Event Source: NtFrs
Event Category: None
Event ID: 13507
Date: 5/24/2000
Time: 3:44:54 PM
User: N/A
Computer: TEST
Description: The File Replication Service cannot start replication set DOMAIN SYSTEM VOLUME (SYSVOL SHARE) on computer TEST for directory e:\winnt\sysvol\domain because the type of volume \\.\e:\ is not NTFS 5.0 or later. The volume's type can be found by typing "chkdsk \\.\e:\". The volume can be upgraded to NTFS 5.0 or later by typing "chkntfs /E \\.\e:\".

CAUSE

This behavior occurs because the domain controller is not updated with the new drive letter for the Domain System Volume share (in this case, M:\Winnt\Sysvol).

RESOLUTION

To resolve this behavior, use the ADSIEdit tool to update the domain controller by adding the new drive letter:

1. Start the ADSIEdit tool, which is located on the Windows 2000 installation CD under \Support\Tools.
2. In the ADSIEdit tree, click the Domain Controllers organizational unit.
3. Click the name of your domain controller, click NTFRS Subscriptions, and then view the properties of the Domain System Volume share.
4. Change the property view to Mandatory.
5. Change the FRSRootPath value to indicate drive M.
6. Change the FRSStagingPath value to indicate drive M.
7. Stop and then restart the NTFRS service.

MORE INFORMATION

ADSIEdit is a Microsoft Management Console (MMC) snap-in that acts as a low-level editor for Windows 2000 Active Directory. ADSIEdit uses Active Directory Service Interfaces (ADSI) and provides a way to add, delete, and move objects within the directory services. You can view, change, or delete the attributes of each object.
