Directory partition: %1
Source domain controller: %4
Source domain controller address: %2
Intersite transport (if any): %5

This domain controller will be unable to replicate with the source domain controller until this problem is corrected.

User Action
Verify if the source domain controller is accessible or network connectivity is available.

Additional Data
Error value: %6 %3

The Knowledge Consistency Checker (KCC) could not create a replication link between this domain controller and the remote domain controller.

Possible causes include:

• The computer is disconnected from the network.
• DNS could not resolve the server name.
• The target account could not be found.
• Access was denied.
• A database error exists.

Verify that there is connectivity between the two domain controllers. The KCC will try to create a link automatically the next time it runs.
