 hello<br />
<br />
We have 3 x 2003 servers located in different locations using DFS. &nbsp;At one location inparticular, random XP clients seem to choose the incorrect DFS drive on startup.<br />
<br />
If I manually try and change it on the client (ie go to properties of the share, DFS, and set active) - I get an error 'parameter is incorrect'. &nbsp;Sometimes restarting fixes this (temporarily), sometimes it doesnt.<br />
<br />
it obviously slows users down a lot when this happens! let me know if more info is required<br />
<br />
many thanks,

DFS - Parameter incorrect

Windows Server 2003 was based on Windows XP and was released in four editions: Web, Standard, Enterprise and Datacenter. It also had derivative versions for clusters, storage and Microsoft’s Small Business Server. Important upgrades included integrating Internet Information Services (IIS), improvements to Active Directory (AD) and Group Policy (GP), and the migration to Automated System Recovery (ASR).
