Can you create a new folder target beneath your namespace and then create a
new replication group for that folder target?

Example:

Current Config:

Namespace = \\domain\share <file://domain/share>
Existing folder target = DirectoryA
DirectoryA contains = Directory1, Directory2, Directory3
Existing Replication group =
\\domain\share\DirectoryA<file://domain/share/DirectoryA>

New Config:

Namespace = \\domain\share <file://domain/share>
Existing folder target = DirectoryA
New folder target = Directory2
Existing replication group =
\\domain\share\DirectoryA<file://domain/share/DirectoryA>
New replication group =
\\domain\share\DirectoryA\Directory1<file://domain/share/DirectoryA/Directory1>


It's been awhile since I messed with DFS and that was on 2003, but it seems
that should work. I don't have the ability to test however....
