default filter was blocking them.
Filter removed and we replicating.
Post by Jill Zoeller [MSFT]I just want to make sure I understand the sequence of events that caused FRS
Created a link with two targets and configured FRS.
Confirmed FRS was working (i.e., replicating) as scheduled.
Followed the procedure you mention below to disable a referral to one of the
targets.
Is my understanding correct? I was just making sure that you didn't actually
remove a link target or anything like that. The UI does not disable FRS when
a referral is disabled, so I wonder if something else has happened that
caused FRS to stop working. Have you checked the FRS event logs on both
targets? How about trying Sonar or FRSDiag from www.microsoft.com/frs to
check replication health?

On our DC: SBS 2k3: Start > Administrative Tools > Distributed File System
Expand \\domain.local\RootOnDC
Select Link, select / right click target
Enable or Disable Referral
Under DFS Referral it now says disabled, file replication says enabled.
It has created the file structure on the other server but nothing else, I
must add that the other server is not a DC and does not have DNS server
enabled, the root server is a DC and has DNS enabled.
Thanks

Post by Jill Zoeller [MSFT]Disabling a referral should not affect replication in any way. Which
operating system and snap-in/tool did you use to do this?
