[cifs-protocol] [REG: 115021812413073] MS-DRSR ExecuteKCCTasks empty

[Tarun Chopra]

Hello Andrew - 

Thanks for the feedback. 

Just below this section 4.1.6.2.1  in section 4.1.6.3, we have provided forward reference to section 6.2.2 of MS-ADTS. In addition,  last step of pseudo code provided in section 4.1.6.3 calls into  'ExecuteKCCTasks()' which gives an impression that both sections are linked. Is it sufficient from implementation\clarity point of view to have reference from section 4.1.6.3  only ? If not, we will go ahead and add the reference in section 4.1.6.2.1  too.

     4.1.6.3 Server Behavior of the IDL_DRSExecuteKCC Method
     ........    See [MS-ADTS] section 6.2.2 for more information related to the tasks performed by the KCC upon receipt of an IDL_DRSExecuteKCC request.

     ULONG
     IDL_DRSExecuteKCC(
      ...
      ...
      return ExecuteKCCTasks()

Thanks
Tarun.

For a whole KCC, this is rather short:

MS-DRSR 4.1.6.2.1 ExecuteKCCTasks
procedure ExecuteKCCTasks(): ULONG
This procedure executes the tasks necessary for maintaining the replication topology between DCs.
If an error occurs, a Windows error code is returned. If successful, the method returns 0.

I presume this means run the KCC as found in 6.2.2, but this isn't linked explicitly.
