Hello,

I have a Network with two Windows 2000 server , I suppose one is master 
(or  primary) and one is secondary - I don't know exactly the vocabulary 
of Windows. the AD is "replicated" over the two Windows Server

I installed synchronization between the FDS server and the AD on a host 
(say Windows-1 server), with Agreement replication
then I installed the password sync on the Windows-1 host.
All is ok when the password is changed on the Windows-1 server, the 
password is synchronized to the FDS.

Now when a user change his password on a windows XP station in the AD 
(the operation is CTRL+ALT+DEL then change password)  the password is 
not necessary sync to the FDS.
my hypothesis : it seems it depends  on which windows server the 
password has been changed. Some time the password is sync when, I 
suppose, the Windows1 server answer to the request to change the 
password, but when the windows2 server answer , then the password is not 
sync.

is my hypothesis correct ?
Can I install the password sync programm on the other Windows2 server 
even if the replicated agreement is beetween FDS and Windows1 server ? 
wich will behavior be ?

thanks
