Replication Diagnostics Tool
The Replication Diagnostics Tool (Repadmin), a command-line tool, allows you to view the replication topology as seen from the perspective of each domain controller. In addition, Repadmin can be used in troubleshooting to create the replication topology manually (although in normal practice this should not be necessary), to force replication events between domain controllers, and to view the replication metadata. You can also use Repadmin to see how up-to-date each domain controller is.
Note During the normal course of operations, there is no need to manually create the replication topology. Incorrect use of this tool might adversely impact the IT certification topology. The main use of this tool is to monitor replication so problems such as offline servers or unavailable LAN/WAN connections can be identified.
Repadmin has the following syntax:

After you design the renewal process, you must design the revocation process. There are two parts to this process: when and how certificates should be revoked and how applications learn that certificates have been revoked. Because a MCSE Certification is usually revoked to prevent it from being used, the process of how applications learn that a certificate is no good (has been revoked) is critical. But before you can design the revocation process, you must understand how the process works.
If a cached CRL is available and it has not expired, a new CRL will not be downloaded. If the certificate has recently been revoked, even though the administrator manually published a new CRL, this information will not be available to the computer until the current, cached CRL expires. Therefore, it is possible that a revoked certificate will be validated.
