Hi Guys,

Ran DCDIAG on a child subdomain, and got the following error:

Starting test: RidManager
* Available RID Pool for the Domain is 2603 to 1073741823
* DC01.child.domain.internal is the RID Master
* DsBind with RID Master was successful
Failed with 8481: The search failed to retrieve attributes from the database.
Could not get Rid set Reference :failed with 8481: The search failed to retrieve attributes from the database.
......................... DC01.CHILD failed test RidManager

I've spent a lot of time trying to dig this up, but found nothing so far.

I can use ADSIEdit and view the attributes on "CN=RID Set,CN=DC01,OU=Domain Controllers,DC=child,DC=domain,DC=internal" without any problems - all seems OK.

Anyone help me out?

Cheers,




Steve.

Have you tried running this test from the DC that holds the RID master role? I would be interested in the results.
