I've been using DFS combined with folder redirection for our users documents for a while. Works fine.
From: Tom Miller [mailto:[email protected]] Sent: Friday, 11 February 2011 12:25 AM To: NT System Admin Issues Subject: DFS for "private" folders? We have a large program where staff spend a portion of their time at local schools, jails (no, not as inmates...), courts, and so on. Staff periodically go to their "home" office, which is one of our WAN sites. The home office is used for printing, writing docs, and such. I currently use DFS to replicate the program's data folder, and this works well. Staff access the copy at HQ when they are using XenApp, and the access the home office folder when at that location. I'm asking about doing the same with their private folders. Each user's private folder is something like \\server\private\%username%<file:///\\server\private\%25username%25> Can use a DSF path in user profiles even? I could always not use a namespace and just use DFS for replication, and add a Group Policy preference mapping based on the AD site (or something like that) Thoughts and comments welcome.
