We are supporting a small office with an existing Server 2012 Standard DC. Yesterday I installed a secondary Server 2012 R2 and configured it as a secondary DC. The promotion went fine without any errors; however after the reboot the SYSVOL and NETLOGON shares do not appear. The DFS Replication event logs show the following after rebooting both servers:
The DFS Replication service successfully established an inbound connection with partner HCAPSRVR2 for replication group Domain System Volume.
Additional Information:
Connection Address Used: HCAPSRVR2.DC.HCAPSRVR2
Connection ID: 6257418B-2FEC-43BA-A9B2-DF16376C1486
Replication Group ID: 001EB651-3C9A-48B6-83EC-51672C075199
This event was logged last night and nothing has shown up since then. I ran a dcdiag on the new DC and it shows this:

Yesterday I demoted the DC and then tried to promote it again, same result. I also tried going into adsiedit and following these steps:

Any pointers would be greatly appreciated.
