All of our tools check status at the time they are ran. As opposed to continually updating by requerying the destination DC, they check once-when you run that command.

Repadmin is a good way to go. You can judge for a specific attribute by using the /showobjmeta command and track by USN. Alternatively, you can use the /showattr command to check the actual value to compare and see if it arrived at destination DCs or not.

The showobjmeta command was detailed in a prior post. Let me know if that doesn't help out or not.

Hi Tim,

Thanks for sharing your knowledge on this stuff.
I have a request regarding the replication latency on my Forest.
Is there a way to see in a real time that a change made on an AD object is replicatd to all my DCs in my forest ?
Example: i make a change on a object (say the sn), i'd like to see,in real time, this change replicated on all my DCs, in order to measure the time of synchronisation in my forest.
Could this be done with repadmin ? replmon ? or else ?

Thanks,
