We are running two server in one domain. I think that somewhere i made a
mistake to use the second server as a dc . How can i stop this?? The purpose
is to use the second server for TS and RAS only. Can anyone give me an idea

Thanks.

The attempt to establish a replication link for the following writable
directory partition failed.

Directory partition:
DC=BGH,DC=local
Source domain controller:
CN=NTDS
Settings,CN=BGH-TERMINALSER,CN=Servers,CN=Default-First-Site-Name,CN=Sites,CN=Configuration,DC=BGH,DC=local
Source domain controller address:
9e8b720d-f642-40e0-9707-0dc558dce1e1._msdcs.BGH.local
Intersite transport (if any):


This domain controller will be unable to replicate with the source domain
controller until this problem is corrected.

You can run "dcpromo" on the second server to remove the AD there.

Ray,

Thanks for the fast reply. Running DCPROMO on the 2003 server tells me there
is a DNS lookup failure at the SBS2003 server.

Did you verify the Windows 2003's DNS is pointing to SBS as the only DNS?
From the Windows 2003, can you ping the SBS by netbios name, as well as
FQDN?
