We have a persistant issue with our DFS share and would like to find a solution.
The DFS namespace was working fine for over a year, and we have three drives mapped to it using GPO.
Two months ago we performed a 32 to 64 bit upgrade on our DC servers moving from 2008 32-bit to 2008 R2.
During the migration we lost connectivity to our DFS shares. After installing the DFS role on one of our DCs the service came back online.
We thought everything was fine, but every so often users are getting kicked out of the DFS share. This happens maybe once a week. Very sporadic.
If a user points to the DFS name they get kicked back to the My Computer window. If they browse using the server's actual name the shares work just fine.
We are seeing no errors on any of the DFS servers or DCs in relation to DFS.
I've also tried the steps in this thread and still no luck.
Any thoughts on what to check for?
