Changing NTFS security permissions replicate slow to 2nd DFS server

Hi there,

I'm not sure if this behaviour is by design but i'm experiencing some problems with setting up ntfs permission configuration on 2 fileservers who share a dfs configuration.

When i modify the rights of one of the folders, i login to one of the servers and change the permissions on f.e. e:\data\test folder. Inside this folder we have put 5 GB of testdata.

It takes 30 minutes before the changes are replicated to both the dfs servers. When i put a file on one of the servers its replicated immediatly. The servers are physicly standing next to eachother, connected through a 1000mbits network.

The performance settings in dfs are optimal, maximal bandwidth usage.

is this behaviour by design, and will i have to live with it?

Also I would like to note these 2 servers are virtual vmware servers.Start Free Trial
