We are running DFS on Storage Server 2003 and we want to replicate data onto a new server (Storage Server 2012)
I have been at this for about 2 weeks trying to fix it searching the internet and trying everything. I am of course willing to start from scratch and try everything again with guidence from this forum.
KEY:
DC (Domain Controller) SBS2011
Server 2 (DFS) Storage Server 2003
Server 3 (DFS Backup) Storage Server 2012

This report is being ran from SERVER3 (Storage server 2012)
