While IIS will support the webroot on a remote machine you are going to have some lag in your site with your setup unless they are on a fiber channel or a dedicated gigabit internal network. I would opt for the replication option VS the remote webroot option. We use Vice Versa Pro 2 to sync the files back and fourth. We moved from DFS to this a few months ago and it seems to be a lot faster and more reliable. Worth the $60 just for that alone. http://www.tgrmn.com/web/upgrade/vvpro2.htm
