Hi All,
I am hoping this is possible. In my DFS root I have mounted a folder called "Departments". It has a whole list of folders in it (as you guess it, for different departments). I.e:
\\domain.local\DFS\Departments ---> mounted folder (points to E:\Departments)
\\domain.local\DFS\Departments\Finance ---> subfolder1 (a folder that exists in E:\Departments)
\\domain.local\DFS\Departments\Marketing ----> subfolder2 etc.
What I am trying to do, is mount ANOTHER folder on a DIFFERENT server into one of the subfolders, like this:
\\domain.local\DFS\Departments\Marketing\Media ---> I want the Media folder to point to a NAS
--
I have tried to do this: In DFS, when I right click on the root namespace (\\domain.local\DFS) and click on "New Folder". In "Name" I type "Departments\Marketing\Media" and below that, the "Preview of namespace:" says: "\\domain.local\DFS\Departments\Marketing\Media". That's exactly what I want to happen and it's where I want to mount the NAS (\\domain.local\DFS\Departments\Marketing already exists and is accessible). In the folder target I point it to the shared folder on my NAS. However, when I press "OK" I get the following error:
\\domain.local\DFS\Departments\Marketing\Media: The folder target \\nas\media cannot be added to the folder. The file exists
I am hoping this is indeed possible and I am just doing it wrong. If anyone could help me out here I would really appreciate it!
Cheers!
