DFS limitation

Thanks for your help.

I have a old file server with about 140GB size and 900000 no. of files.
I want to migrate it to a new server and would like to apply DFS to
replicate all files to the new server. And I want to confirm if it is ok or
not, any limitation on it,
if yes, how can I overcome it, pls see below our server configuration:

Old server:
- Windows 2003 server without any service pack

New server:
- Windows 2003 sp2 or install R2 if required

All servers are joined to Windwos 2000 domain, currently using domain DFS.

Thanks

Patrick

You would want to use DFSR and you would have to upgrade your "old server"to

You would want to use DFSR and you would have to upgrade your "old server"
to SP2 then R2. You could set up a robocopy script to copy the data over the
weekend.

Map a drive from the new server to the old and from the new server use
something like robocopy x y /e /sec /w:5 /r:3 /log: c:\robocopy.log

Then view the log created on the C drive to see if anything was missed.
