Replication between the ADAM database and Active Directory Lightweight Directory Services (AD LDS) fails in a workgroup that contains a Windows Server 2003 SP2-based computer

To resolve the issue, install the hotfix on the affected Windows Server 2003 SP2-based computer. After applying the hotfix, a registry value must be added on the Windows Server 2003 server to enable replication from each ADAM instance to the corresponding AD LDS instance on Windows Server 2008 and Windows Server 2008 R2:

Reg Subkey = "HKLM\System\CurrentControlSet\Services\<ADAM_Instance_Name>\Parameters"
Registry Value = NTLMSessionKey
Type = DWORD
Value = 0x1

The registry value has to be added on a per instance basis. 


Note After you apply the hotfix and set the registry value to 0x1, the following replications will fail:

• Replications between ADAM in Windows XP and patched ADAM in Windows Server 2003.
• Replications between patched ADAM in Windows Server 2003 and unpatched ADAM in Windows Server 2003.
