MS-DRSR 4.1.23 IDL_DRSReplicaSync has some great pseudo-code in 4.1.23.2
Server Behavior of the IDL_DRSReplicaSync Method.  However, it finishes
with this text statement:

Perform a replication cycle as a client of IDL_DRSGetNCChanges.
4.1.10.4.1) to form the first request and send it. If not DRS_MAIL_REP
in r.options, then wait for the response, process it, send the next
request (section 4.1.10.6), etc., until the replication cycle is
complete.

This is great, but I need to know what parameters are passed in to
4.1.10.4.1 ReplicateNCRequestMsg

In particular, I'm trying to chase down an issue in our RODC case, where
the SPECIAL_SECRETS_PROCESSING flag isn't being sent by our RODC to
GetNCChanges.  I know how I *could* force it, but I don't know if it
should always be forced, for example.  For example, should the server
sending DsReplicaSync tell the RODC to request it, or should the RODC
add it (and remove WRIT_REP) on it's own? 

Thanks,

Andrew Bartlett
