DFS across multiple domains

Asked by itbamiami in Windows NT Networking, Windows 2003 Server

Tags: Microsoft, Distributed File System, Windows 2003, Setting up DFS on Multiple Domains

Good afternoon,

We have four domains three of them being child domains.  In all domains we have setup a folder called Arch and we have associated the letter H: to that folder.  Now I have end users working from the different domains that need access to the Arch share on the other domains.  I can't just map them to the other Arch folder using a different letter because when they try to save a AutoCad file it will not allow them.

I would like to set up an DFS structure that when the end user needs to work on a Cad file from another domain they would be able t save changes.  My questions is could I setup different DFS shares with different letters pointing to the Arch folder they are working on and allow them to save without giving them the error not allowing them to save because the drive letter is different than H:.

Tank you in advance for all your help,
