How can I set the RPC port that intrasite replication uses?
For security, Windows 2000 sets the remote procedure call (RPC) replication
port dynamically. However, you might want to manually set the port (e.g., to
monitor data).
- Start regedit.
- Go to the
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\NTDS\Parameters
registry entry.
- From the Edit menu, select New, DWORD Value.
- Enter
TCP/IP Port
and press Enter.
- Double-click the new entry, and enter the port you want to use. (Make sure
the port isn�t already in use.) Click OK.
- Close the registry editor.
- Reboot the machine.
After monitoring finishes, you need to remove the registry entry you created.
Removing this entry reinstates the security that dynamic RPC port allocation
provides.
