I am asuming you are running both machines as DC's in the same domain. Which means you have run dcpromo on the other machine as well. Active Directory replication uses a connection topology that is created automatically, which makes optimal use ofbeneficial network connections and frees the administrators from having to make such decisions. Therefore replication occurs by default every 15 min. to force replication use the repadmin tool. hope this helps
