Hi,

I am looking to impliment DFS to share out batch files and installations
files, across a geographically diverse wan. However all the reading I have
done to date has not mentioned how I set security. So how's it done so that
one of my users doesn't accidently delete the file?

Thanks

Re: DFS security

Apollo,
You set the security in the normal way on the target folders. DFS replicates
the file and folder security.
Two points:
- Do not set security using the DFS paths to the folders, only the actual
UNC or local path
- The Share security is not replicated. You can use the Share security to
allow Read only, but you would need to set it on each Share
