I am usually a very nice and patient person, but now the patience is running out and I feel frustrated and need to write about this so maybe it can help others who are considering replication. And I am being brutally honest (sorry to …
One thing that is introduced (or has come back actually) in SP2013 is: AD import. The big benefit of using ADI is that it is fast and easy to setup. Also, the filters are ready so you can just check a box to filter out disabled accounts!! Great! Not much can go wrong there. But, …

There is a new version 6 out that I have not installed yet, will come back with an update after that.5 March: Awesome news! …
This is not an error in the Replication tool, but it caused the replication to stop working. One day the replication on one of our servers stopped working. Inbound packages were just stuck in the queue, and when I tested the replication connection I got this message: “An error occurred while verifying virtual directories on target”: So …
Since we started using the Replication software our SQL disks has filled up quite quickly. Of course we usually have alert systems warning us for disks running out of space but due to new system that had not yet been setup. So one day I could not get replication to work on one of our servers, …
