It works on a fast link no problemo. Just jack the size of your staging directory up.

But I have almost a Gig of applications and I was under the impression that DFS did not replicate large amounts of data very well, even if it doesn't change often? jb -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Roger Seielstad Sent: Thursday, June 03, 2004 11:16 AM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: RE: [ActiveDir] Moving Roaming profiles I'm in the process of drawing a DFS tree for just that reason - eliminate the server name dependencies for shares. The only thing I see myself replicating is a small set of apps that are installed via GPO. -------------------------------------------------------------- Roger D.
