Are they both using the same share name?

I proceeded as I usually do, but there is no way for this to replicate! The event viewer is full of errors, such as this ones: __________________________ The File Replication Service is unable to add this computer to the following replica set: "_ROOT$|USERS" This could be caused by a number of problems such as: -- an invalid root path, -- a missing directory, -- a missing disk volume, -- a file system on the volume that does not support NTFS 5.0 The information below may help to resolve the problem: Computer DNS name is "server.csmf.local" Replica set member name is "{99C9ADCD-D6F3-4468-9E7C-9764EA2BDE7F}" Replica set root path is "f:\users" Replica staging directory path is "e:\frs-staging" Replica working directory path is "c:\winnt\ntfrs\jet" Windows error status code is ERROR_BAD_COMMAND FRS error status code is FrsErrorResourceInUse Other event log messages may also help determine the problem. Correct the problem and the service will attempt to restart replication automatically at a later time. -------------------- Following is the summary of warnings and errors encountered by File Replication Service while polling the Domain Controller server.csmf.local for FRS replica set configuration information. The nTFRSMember object cn={4f36c0a7-23da-4535-89ae-148f1538c4df},cn=_root|grupos,cn=_root,cn=df s volumes,cn=file replication service,cn=system,dc=csmf,dc=local has a invalid value for the attribute frsComputerReference. The nTFRSMember object cn={4f36c0a7-23da-4535-89ae-148f1538c4df},cn=_root|users,cn=_root,cn=dfs volumes,cn=file replication service,cn=system,dc=csmf,dc=local has a invalid value for the attribute frsComputerReference. _________________________________ The File Replication Service cannot replicate f:\users because it overlaps the replicating directory f:\users. ----------------- I only have one DFS root with 2 dfs links (users and groups). One thing that might be causing this problem is that I used to have a W2k3 server with the same name as one of this 2 servers, and it completely crashed, so I had to re-install it with W2k and used the same name... Anyone has any idea about how to make this work?
