PDC / BDC (user) sync broken after restore of PDC.
« on: January 18, 2021, 11:51:22 pm »
Tried updating our Zentyal 6.1 DC today. However it failed and it no longer boots.
For now i'm not really interested in why that happened.
I restored the entire virtual machine from a backup i made just before I started the updates, but now the sync to the BDC seems to be broken. New users i make on the PDC will not sync over to the BDC. (which is our file server)
Both of these machines are Zentyal 6.1.

I can't find anything in any samba log on the BDC, nor do i find worrying messages when i look at for example samba-tool drs showrepl.

Can log in with said new account on a pc just fine.

Any advice on things to try?

Also running samba-tool drs replicate fileserver.domain.lan dc.domain.lan CN=Configuration,DC=Domainname,DC=lan --full-sync ran successfully on the BDC. (and didnt sync the test user i created)

User changes made FROM said file server do seem to sync over.

I have since concluded the problem is not the sync... I will open a new topic, in de correct forum subsection.

Edit:
For the sake of full disclosure should anybody google for this: https://forum.zentyal.org/index.php/topic,35124.0.html
