(if other dcs monitored well, generate duplicate event id if replicated pdc)? 3) other event id monitor user account locked out? 4) on policy lockout user account after 3 bad password attempts, there event id lookout for third bad password attempt? (reason asked because event id 4740 not triggered until fourth bad password entry attempted though account gets locked on third attempt)? thank you >1) event id 4740 exclusive pdc or other dc can log event id well? >2) should pdc monitored or dcs shou

Change Notification across AD Sites

by default, replication interval between ad sites 180 minutes minimum value = 15 minutes. of changes in domain controller notified other domain controllers in ad site following replication interval settings. hence, there 15 minutes dc replication latency among ad sites. changes in domain controllers considered “urgent replication”. to minimize replication latency in corporate network across ad sites, requires updating attribute in ad site link accordingly in order notify domain controller in ad site when ad changes initiated , detected. can configure change notifications on connections between sites using adsiedit.msc tool. enabling change notifications across site links propagates change notifications. change notification between sites set, changes propagate remote site same frequency propagated within source site, including changes warrant urgent replication. enable change notifications, means change in ad no matter a urgent replication, replicate site @ near real time?
