I just install a DFS system on different servers. My replication group consists of Windows 2003 R2 and Windows 2008 R2 servers. The replication itself works well. On the Windows 2008 R2 server I can enable the membership to read-only, in the Windows Server 2003 R2 not. Is there a way to enable this function, for example to update the DFS system OS independent or with some CLI Commands?
Here is the dialog of Windows 2008 R2 member:
And here the same dialog of Windows 2003 R2 member:
One-way replication is not supported or recommended in DFS-R in Windows Server 2003 R2. It is possible to configure it to work in a "read-only" sort of manner, but that wasn't a tested or designed configuration for the product and you may end up with unintended consequences.
