I added a new 2012 member server to a single domain forest consisting of 3 other Win2k8 servers. DFS works great between the 2K8 servers, but I can't get it work with the 2012 one.
I created a simple test folder on the desktop of the 2012 server along with one on the 2k8 servers. Then from the 2k12 server DFS management console, created a new replication group with the 2012 and one of the 2k8 servers as members. Set the test folder on each server to replicate with the 2012 as primary. I then create a test file inside the test folder on the 2012 one and it never replicates to the 2k8. I force replication thru the Sites console and the shared folders show up in the "add replication groups to display" list. I then force replication thru the DFS management console connections "replicate now", but it never replicates (even with time). Always shows the 2k8 server as "this member is waiting for initial replication for replicated folder test". I've tried this in reverse from the 2k8 server with same results. I can do the same between any of the 3 2k8 servers and it works like a charm.
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks
