I was thinking the same thing also since I am having difficulties to make
DFS do what I want.  Basically on my server (One file server), in the root
directory, I have two folders Users and Departments. Under the Users
folder, I have my users folders (jdoe, rkevin, jchappo, kgordon etc..).
Under the Department folder, I have the departments folders (IT, HR, Sales
etc...).  What I would like to accomplish is to use one map drive on each
client machine to connect to their private folder as well as their
department folder. Example: jdoe will have his X: drive mapped to both
(jdoe folder, and IT folder).  rkevin will also have his X: drive mapped
to (rkevin folder, and Sales folder).  jchappo will have his X: drive
mapped to (jchappo folder, and IT folder) etc... So each user will click
on the drive X: and see two folders: their private folder and their
department folder.
By doing this, users only see their private folder and their department
folder.  They do not see any other folder that does not belong them.  Also
they only use one mapped drive that has two sub-folders: their private
folder and their department folder.
Will you please share with me how you have it configure in your own
environment.  This is my first file server that I am configuring, may be I
do not have to do it this way.
Thank you your suggestions.
