Hi all<br />
<br />
I have two 2003 &nbsp;R2 servers set up to run DFS Both in the same site.<br />
<br />
server A has a shared folder and server B has a shared folder. Both servers host the name space and everything works as it should but for one thing. On one of the servers all the files are read only even though all the permissions are the same on both of the shares. If share A is the active share its perfect, if server B is active then all users can see everything and all the permiisions set work except that no one can save work create new stuff just read.<br />
<br />
Has anyone any ideas what could cause this and the best resolution please<br />
<br />
Thanks<br />
<br />

DFS permissions out of sync

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).
