Problem : DFSR replication Issue A security package specific error occurred
Hey Guys.
Hope someone has an Idea about this.
Setting up DFSR between two servers. Both W2k3 R2 Member server, One a Virtual server running on Windows XP sp2. SBS Domain Controllor, Connected over IPsec Cisco VPN.
The setup of the DFSR all looks to work ok. I can even see the dsfrprivate folder being created at both the master and replication folder.
Yet I am gettting this error in Event log.
The DFS Replication service encountered an error communicating with partner MEL-VR01 for replication group domain.localDatasharedit.
Partner DNS address: mel-vr01.domain.local
Optional data if available:
Partner WINS Address: mel-vr01
Partner IP Address: 192.168.3.10
The service will retry the connection periodically.
Additional Information:
Error: 1825 (A security package specific error occurred.)
Connection ID: B0B13F7A-23E4-4FA6-AD63-BB76FC4663E3
Replication Group ID: ABECEFD9-0EE1-4B97-B172-2D7F0C9F5AEE
If I run DFSRdiag /syncnow I get this error.

I have tried recreating the Replication folders a few times and changed the service to run under my Domain Admin account.
Does anyone have any Idea what could be the problem.
Solution: DFSR replication Issue A security package specific error occurred
Ok just worked out the problem.
The issue was that the Virtual machine was running on a Window XP sp2 box that had windows Firewall enabled.
I ran DFSRdiag staticrpc:3000 to set the port to 3000
Then allow both TCP 143 and 3000 through the firstwall. Now replication is working.
