Missing SysVol and Netlogon shares

Hi,

I just created an ADC in our environment. It is noted that SYSVOL and  NETLOGON shares does not exist. Can you please help me in this regard? We are using Server 2012.

You can perform a non-authoritative restore of SYSVOL as I shared here: http://www.ahmedmalek.com/web/fr/articles.asp?artid=23

There are other recommendations and basic troubleshooting steps I mentioned in the article which would be helpful.

Hi,

Try this on Effected DC.

https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/kb/315457

On  domain controller in the domain, follow these steps: 

  1. Click Start, click Run, type cmd, and then click OK.
  2. Type net start ntfrs to start the File Replication service.
  3. Type ntfrsutl ds |findstr /i "root stage", and then press ENTER. The NTFRSUTIL command returns the current root directory for the SYSVOL replica set that is referred to as the replica set root and the staging folder. For example, this command returns:    

Root: C:\WINNT\SYSVOL\domain
Stage: C:\WINNT\SYSVOL\staging\domain

4. Type Linkd %systemroot%\SYSVOL\SYSVOL\ DNS Domain name, and then press ENTER. The LINKD command returns the following:    

Source DNS Domain Name is linked to %systemroot%\SYSVOL\domain

5. Type linkd "%systemroot%\SYSVOL\staging areas\DNS Domain Name", and then press ENTER. This command returns the following:    

Source DNS Domain Name is linked to %systemroot%\SYSVOL\Staging\domain

Hi AneesUrRehman,

Thanks for your post.

You could run DCdiag /c to test pass. Check the event log to see if there's some error message.

In addition, please check the KB and try the suggestion in these articles.
