I have encountered an issue where FRS is generating a huge amount of network traffic, as a result of certain SYSVOL folders having their read only attribute updated on a *very* regular basis.
Whilst I do not (yet) understand why only certain folders are r/o and why this generates so much network traffic, I would like to remove the r/o flag and thus reduce the amount of FRS traffic generated. Unfortunately (and not surprisingly) a simple removal of a r/o flag on one DC is quickly reverted back. Does anyone have any suggestions for tackling this issue, without for example, stopping FRS on all (78) DCs and changing the flag on all of these DCs before starting the FRS service again (which we believe will work, but represents a huge disruption to the environment). Has anyone encountered a similar issue before? If so, what caused r/o flag to be updated so frequently? Any suggestions are gratefully appreciated :) Thanks, neil Neil Ruston MVP (AD) Consultant, London ============================================================================== This message is for the sole use of the intended recipient.
