DFS in 2003 has generally been improved in a way that it leverages IP and Site-Cost information to generate the list of DFS targets returned to clients (in this case the SYSVOL share).
So yes, this is a non-issue in 2003. /Guido -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Free, Bob Sent: Thursday, November 18, 2004 5:17 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: RE: [ActiveDir] Forcing SYSVOL from authenticating DC Sites without domain controllers cause DFS referral to remote site for SYSVOL contents: http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;EN-US;823362 >This is for 2003.

I can't find how to do this on MS's site. Can anyone point me at the information? This is for 2003.
