Can anyone give an explanation of the differences between DFS and RFS? &nbsp;I understand that the main use of DFS is to essentially create a &quot;Table of contents&quot; or a single server to connect to for connecting to shares on different servers, but i was looking more into DFS and it's ability to replicate data across multiple servers. &nbsp;I've found conflicting info on this. &nbsp;What I've been under the impression of, is that DFS would be using the RFS service to replicate data between two targets. &nbsp;Is this correct?

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).
