I got an answer about KMS. I hesitated about posting here but I think
this just clears up the misconceptions expressed in the thread, it
doesn't really disclose any new information...
There are 2 issues here, and a bit of a misunderstanding.
Windows Server codenamed Longhorn is still in beta.
First post had no takers???
All,
We have some issues where folders with DFS-R implemented have what I
call relapse. Here are some symptoms. We can add files and folders,
no problem. We can change file names, no problem. When we rename
folders, we have a problem - many times, the folder name
All,
Can anyone please tell me if they have seen any BTS (Beta Training Content)
documentation for Longhorn Server?

I have a problem here, and it seams to be very big.
In one of our domains we had 2 DC´s. one of them a GC, Now one of them is
down, and in the other, the Forwards lookup zone is empty.
How can recreate the forwards zone? Is my subdomain lost?
How can I recover the dns configuration? I can see
What type of zone was it? Was it just a Standard Primary or AD Integrated?

Do you Yahoo!?
Everyone is raving about the all-new Yahoo! Mail beta.
If a Vista KMS client contacts a beta KMS host, the client will receive an
invalid version error and will proceed to try another KMS from the list
provided by DNS.
This is good information, Rich; I hadn't seen this before. It means that
beta and production KMS infrastructures can coexist. Thanks
Oops. I forgot a few words: ...can coexist *using autodiscovery.*

This may be slightly off topic.
Does anyone remember how fast Exchange needs the line speed to be for
remote access? I am working with a client that is having time out issues

The native way to create a GPO is to right click on an OU and select properites
and then select the Group Policy Tab, the easiest way to create and manage

Exchange 2003 and above with Outlook 2003 and above put a heck of a lot more
data in each buffer and they compress it. Thus, due to a more efficient use of
bandwidth, the latency can increase and still have reasonable performance.

I'll weigh in - I'm no DFSR legend, but I like to think I am learning
more about it every day, and things like this only help me learn more...
You say you have no replication of your DFS topology, except for one
folder - what is the replication topology (you know, full mesh, etc)?

Dear whoever you are,
It's going to depend on the size and scope of your domain - how many
DC's, how often replication is set to occur, link speed, etc, etc.
What you say sounds plausible, but what of these other environmental
factors?

When I travel with my standard issue Dell D600 (1.5GB RAM), I get maybe two
