Hi,
As part of my setup, I'm trying to implement a new DFS-R share between 2x Windows 2003 R2 and 1x 2008 R2 servers
I've been experimenting with the DFS-R, and I've found that if I try to change the NTFS partitions of the top-most folder, then these permissions are not replicated to the other duplicates on the other servers. Sub-file and sub-folder Perms are.
I've also found that if I do modify the top-level folder, than that server stops replicating to the others - with no errors in the event logs ! Disaster !! In my testing, all I did was add another users read access, and then that stops replication!!
So - if I need to control the top-level perms, do they all have to be in sync and setup manually ?
