      Hello,

      I am relatively new to pfsense as a firewall/vpn solution, I decided to try it as a solution in linking two remote offices.

      I have configured pfsense 1.2.2 as a firewall and a vpn (openvpn) server to connect 2 remote offices.

      To test the connectivity, I could ping the two offices from each other but the problem I am having is that windows 2008 active directory fails to replicate over the connection.

      When I try to troubleshoot, it brings back the error that the replicating partner/global catalog is not available.

      But I could ping this server from the remote server

      Can anybody help?

        I'm not sure what might be causing the replication error, but before you go any deeper into troubleshooting, upgrade those firewalls to pfSense 1.2.3. 1.2.2 is rather old, and that is the only way to be sure that whatever bug you are encountering hasn't already been fixed somewhere along the line.
