2009-10-16 Thread Justin Piszcz
Current solution (workaround) is 6.5.3+registry hack and it works for
(> 2TB DFSR) replicated folders.

Hi Justin,

I've gotten this to work, but only with very small replicated folders.
 I have the same issue as you with large replicated folders and have
yet to find a solution.

Thanks,

Marc

Hi Judy,

Yes, I am aware of that, this is a brand new host and the start/stop
scripts were not installed on it (nor the registry hack).  If anyone has
backed up a 6.5.4 w/DFSR I would be interested to hear how it was done,
thanks.

Justin.

I have not gone to 6.5.4 yet, but I know you have to UNDO what you did
with 6.5 to get dfs to work.
So take away your scripts that stop and start dfs and take away the
stuff you put in with regedit
