The main question I have is if we want multiple domain based roots should the namespace servers be members servers or domain controllers? Just to have multiple roots you have to be running R2 Enterprise edition which just doesnt make sence to me to upgrade our DC's to Enterprise when you never cluster DC's and none of our DCs have more than 4gb of memory in them!

HI all, Wonder if you can help. We have users connecting in to the network via a Citrix Gateway unit. They need to access a folder called 'Commercial' which actually resides on a server in the same location as the Citrix Box. For some reason when they log in they are being pointed to the main DFS share which is also hosted on a box at one of our other sites that doesn't hold the 'Co... 2 5/9/2007 8:25:35 PM DFS Management snap-in I can't seem to find the snap-in to use from WinXP. The cheezy old Distributed File System snap-in is all that comes with the administration pack, and it's missing most of the features of the new DFS Management Console from R2. Does anyone know how to get that same R2 DFS Management snap-in to install on XP? ... 2 5/9/2007 8:23:55 PM Ultrasound collection failing on 2003 DCs in mixed forest I have a test lab windows 2000 native mode forest with a parent and three child domains. Ultrasound has been running happily for several years.

We are deploying a new small network (single domain over multiple subnets) with the O/Ss below and would appreciate if anyone could clarify whether we should setup WINS Servers on the two domain controllers ?

I've thought about installing sp2 in an effort to fix the problem I mentioned in my first post, however I wouldn't be able to install it on all of the servers. I could put it on my hub server and most of my branch servers, but there are a couple that don't h... 1 5/3/2007 9:04:00 PM Initial DFS replication on a WAN I have a file server where we only have user shares. The user volume is roughly 700GB in size. (Note, the space available is 700GB but it's about 80% full). I would like to implement DFS replication on a 10MB WAN link to a disaster recovery site. Can I do the initial replication across that wan link?

Anyways, I was hoping that I could set a server up at each branch so that the roaming profile would be loaded from the local server instead of the remote server. This in turn would speed up log in and log off times. So I set up a namespace and then replication. I... 1 4/30/2007 7:06:00 PM FRS (sysvol) contents slow to replicate Windows 2003 SP1 on all DC's.
