The root of the DFS is located on our PDC emulator, which is also a DNS server itself. If I go into the dfs root on the PDC emulator I see the file I copied to the \\domain.com\dfs\software directory, it's just not replicating to any of the other links.

I seem to remember having problems with DFS replication before, because one of the servers hosting the root had it's DNS incorrectly configured. Ultrasound would report any errors sure enough. After decoding what it all means you'll need a dark room to lie down in for a few hours. :) Cheers Danny -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Rimmerman, Russ Sent: 13 June 2006 15:31 To: ActiveDir@mail.activedir.org Subject: [ActiveDir] FRS/DFS woes I'm trying to set up a DFS share and having all sorts of issues getting it to work. I've installed Ultrasound and i'm either not sure where to look in it for the answer or it's not giving me the answer. I set up a link with 3 targets in a ring replication topology. 2 of the 3 servers are Win2k3, 1 is Win2k. The only server the file is showing up on is the one that is set up as the master to replicate from. The errors i'm mostly seeing are: The File Replication Service is having trouble enabling replication from CAMPATFS01 to CCVVPLFS01 for d:\communicator using the DNS name campatfs01.ccc.ourdomain.com. FRS will keep retrying. Following are some of the reasons you would see this warning. [1] FRS can not correctly resolve the DNS name campatfs01.ccc.ourdomain.com from this computer. [2] FRS is not running on campatfs01.ccc.ourdomain.com. [3] The topology information in the Active Directory for this replica has not yet replicated to all the Domain Controllers. and Following is the summary of warnings and errors encountered by File Replication Service while polling the Domain Controller \\camdhqdc01.ccc.ourdomain.com for FRS replica set configuration information. I'm thoroughly stumped. Any advice? Name resolution seems to be working reverse and forward between the servers.
