I get this error while creating a second DFS root target:

"Unable to update the password. The value provided as the current password is incorrect."

The second target is on another server on the network. I am hoping to set up replication, but this error is stopping that cold.

Any help on this would be great.
 
I have been looking into this all morning and have this lead. The duplicate DC (server 2) which is the server that the second DFS root target is located on and which is cause the error above is unable to access the doamin security policy or the domain security settings. The second server does not have the authority to access it.

I'm not pretending to know why because I am logged in with full access. I hope this helps get to an answer.

Thanks,

David
