Also, one more finding - I'm not sure if this helps or not. When I run the DFS snapin on the main target that I want to replace to the other targets, it shows the DFS roots but when I select the one I want to view it says "The specified DFS root does not exist". I can, however, view it with no issues on the root target server. If I try to view it on one of the 'receiving' DFS targets, it comes up OK.

Are they DC's or just member servers? If DC's, is the sysvol share replicating?
