We having a issue with DFS none of the folders are replicated. When I try to use repadmin tool to troubleshoot, it gives me an error:

'repadmin' is not recognized as an internal or external command, operable program or batch file. 

i am sure i used it before and troubleshoot.  Help please.!!!!

Hi,

What version of OS you use at your place?

I recommend you use below link to manage/admin DFS at your place.

Hello,

repadminis included on Windows Server 2008 and higher versions only, on earlier OS versions you have to install the support tools.

following shows up when execute set p at command prompt.

Run sfc /scannow

It will check for the integrity of system files ,it can also replace a file if its missing.

Also check if the AD DS role is showing any errors in the server manager

As a sidenote while you figure this out, Repadmin can be manually copied from a different server an

sfc didn't find anything wrong. and i tried to copy the file and run it but it won't run. 

Also, I checked DC and noticed that there are error showing NETLOGON 5808, 5782.

I also see some error regards to DNS-Server-Service Event ID 4013. Is this all related?

Thanks

Hi,

Active Directory relies on DNS to function. Before going further, we can follow the KB article below to troubleshoot the DNS issue to see if it helps.
