Your Windows Server 2003 Directory Service event log contains entries similar to:
Event Type:ErrorEvent Source:NTDS ReplicationEvent Category:Internal ProcessingEvent ID:1481Description: Internal error: The operation on the object failed.Additional DataError value: 5 000020D9: SvcErr: string varies, problem 5001 (BUSY), dataEvent Type:ErrorEvent Source:NTDS ReplicationEvent Category:ReplicationEvent ID:1084Description:Internal event: Active Directory could not update the following object with changes received from the following source domain controller.

This behavior occurs when an Active Directory object that is currently being used is deleted from the Active Directory directory service.
NOTE: The replication engine will attempt to move the object to the Deleted Objects container later.
