DHCP Child Domain Never finishes its authorization

Hi.

I am setting up a new child domain on a remote site. So far, the promotion,
AD replication, Internal DNS and WINS, Site Links etc and even Exchange are
all OK.

I now want to start adding clients etc to the domain and want to install a
DHCP server which will manage the child's subnet. The role installs OK, and
the scope is activated. I have logged on as a member of the parent domain's
Enterprise Admins group and authorized the DHCP server.

But the authorization never seems to finish - i.e. the Refresh always shows
the little red down arrow next to the server name.

I get Event 1046 logged in the Event Viewer. All I can think at the moment
is that the LAN router between the two sites is blocking some vital traffic
between the two subnets. Does this authorization depend on AD replication at
all? Should I wait till my next interval?

Any suggestions/comments most appreciated.

Ta

This was weird - the DHCp server simply would not authorise until the service
was mnaually restarted. Even a reboot didn't change the status. Now, the
server is authorized and stays authorised after a reboot.

Very strange.

Still, it works.
