Daniel your video on DFS is one of the best on DFS that I have seen. The hands on lab is very practical and useful for Corporate IT teams that manage DFS. Great Job !!!

I hope Daniel makes more content because how he laid this out was great and informational. Most other videos are slideshows or just clicking & screen recording. I find them not as helpful. This was great and I hope you can get re-inspired to share more of your knowledge.

Excellent and in depth and easy to follow presentation. Perhaps the best video I have seen as far as DFS is concerned. Thanks a lot for spreading the knowledge and explanation.

Excellent video. Much better than the other DFS videos that only cover the same basic content.

This is the best video for DFS topic on Youtube. I wish I had more contents from you.

[Spoonfork]

Excellent presentation, very clear and too the point.
Superb Demo and just the right length of video.
This is a great video for a beginner and answered a lot of questions I had all in the one video.

Thanks a lot Daniel. A very clear and thorough presentation. Even though I know a lot about DFS, but I wanted to watch your video to the end, just because, you managed to show perfect points and simple examples.

Does DFS handle/save file deletions for scheduled cleanups and also does it do file versioning?

[AbdulHameed-revo]

Thank you Daniel for the fruitful video, learned more from your tutorial than other commercial avaliable:)

Excellent video.. Very well explained and demonstrated. One thing I wish was discussed is the file conflicts. In a multi user environment in which shares are usually used for, file locks I hear is a problem. I am also hearing that a third party software is needed such as WASF from globalscape or peerlock.

Hi Daniel,

Is your second DC a RODC?

Thank you

[alokgupta]

Please check if just installing File server role on a DC for sysvol replication is sufficient and there is no need to install DFS namespaces and replication roles. Check the status using DFS Replication Propagation Report.

[RINO]

Great video. Please is it possible to configure DFS on a DC for clients to access internally without configuring DFS replication?

[elmodj]

Very nicely done. i learned a lot from this . Thanks Daniel

Dear Sir, your Video is very helpful- one Video covers all !! Thank you so much for this great job. I have a little problem: I did exactly what you did and so far my Lab looks as yours. From a Client as Domain-User I managed to acess to the Folder 1 & 2 but I could not access to the Folder 3 & 4. Could you please tell me what the possible problem is? I would be thankful to your reply.

I have one suggestion before practical if you describe a little on the board it'll be more beneficial; new users can get more from that. Anyway the training was good. Thank you sir!
