Re: Server 2008 Folder Redirection
Thanks for all your help so far Meinolf. I have disabled IPv6 but i'm still
having the access denied problem if I use the NetBIOS name of the server. I
have temporarily configured Group Policy to redirect those folders using IP
address (which is working fine), but would like to get this sorted.
Below is the output from dcdiag. netdiag isn't a recognized command on my
2008 box..
