Jeffrey,
I
personally am not a big fan of Dfs - mainly due to a very bad experience in the
early days of Windows 2000 (April 2000). It has gotten better, but is not
really a great solution to bank your DR process on. IMHO, depending on
what your bandwidth is like, the move with Windows Server 2003 might justify
itself with Volume Shadow Services. I've been working closely with VSS and
primarily, Volume Shadow Copy, and IMHO, it Rocks!

I have a customer looking for a disaster recovery solution for their Active Directory domain. They have one site on each coast and want to replicate the data. A VPN is available to each location. I was looking at either DoubleTake or a Veritas solution (Volume Replicator or Storage Replicator) but am having a hard time justifying using this over the built-in DFS. Anyone with any thoughts on this?
