When navigating DFS shares from a terminal server session, windows explorer runs slow and hangs w/o any error messages. this issue appears when using "back" or "up folder" in windows explorer (after 2 or 3 folder changes) and some times the delay is so bad that when you add a new file or folder it wont appear on your screen until you exit the share and then re-enter the share. Navigating via \\servername\sharename runs longer than navigating via \\Namespace\Sharename, before hanging up windows explorer (but not much) I have (2) Win2k3 r2 x64 DC's / File servers running DFS-R and (2) Win2k3 r2 x64 Terminal servers this issue does not appear on XP-Pro PC's whether browsing via \\servername\share name or Namespace\sharename I would chuck DFS but they want to use it to manage shares between multiple sites I have tried using target folders vs. folder shares, sharing files off the Terminal servers, removing replication... nothing tried yet helps
