Yes, but nothing to do with osync or sysvol. If you give a user a
uidNumber, it should be used instead of the xidNumber (10005 =
uidNumber, 3000022 = xidNumber) and the uidNumber should be replicated
to all DCs. Try running 'net cache flush' on dc2, this may fix your
problem, if it doesn't, check on each DC that replication is working.
