Publish a replicated folder in an existing namespace

Applies To: Windows Server 2003 R2

To publish a replicated folder

  1. Click Start, point to Administrative Tools, and then click DFS Management.

  2. In the console tree, under the Replication node, click the replication group that contains the replicated folder you want to share.

  3. In the details pane, on the Replicated Folders tab, right-click the replicated folder you want to share, and then click Share and Publish in Namespace.

  4. In the Share and Publish Replicated Folder Wizard, select the Share and publish the replicated folder in a namespace option, and then follow the steps in the wizard.

Notes

  • To perform this procedure, you must meet the security requirements for managing DFS Replication and namespaces. If folders will be shared as part of the Share and Publish Replicated Folder Wizard, you must also be a member of the local Administrators group on the servers where each folder is shared.

  • If you do not have an existing namespace, you can create one in the Namespace Path page in the Share and Publish Replicated Folder Wizard. To create the namespace, click Browse in the Namespace Path page, and then click New Namespace.
