From my experience, it is real time from FDS -> AD but every 5 mins from AD -> FDS. Presumably this is because all the replication (with the exception of passwords going from AD -> FDS) is performed by FDS. FDS knows when an event occurs in FDS and can replicate it immediately to AD but has to poll (every 5 mins) for an event in AD. > > What are the real rules and frequencies of synchronization ? > How can we change those parameters ? I am not sure but I expect you have to change the code. John
