DFS-R migration resulting in malfunctioning NTFS permissions

-

our company has several offices worldwide.  each office has server file share on replicated between other offices using dfs-r.

recently, needed move replicated file share on 1 of servers 1 drive another.  investigated process doing this, , decided copy entire folder 1 drive other, guessing once pointed replication service @ new location, replication service realize files identical permissions on files need changes, instead of re-downloading files have defeated purpose of prestaging.

according dfs-r diagnostics, @ present there no file backlog , should in sync.  however, i've had 2 users complain trying save files replicated file share , getting "access denied" messges, though had no problems in past.  users both have file share mapped s: drive pointing @ copy of file share moved recently.

i have checked, double-checked , triple-checked ntfs permissions on folders users trying put files , says should able this.  in proper security groups, security groups have full access folder, , these permissions propagate down child objects.  have reapplied security settings on these folders , child objects multiple times, users still getting "access denied".

curiously, if users go 1 of other servers, open replicated file share unc path, drill down same point in folder structure, , try saving file, works.  so, appears dorked ntfs permissions on copy of replicated file share moved.  question is, what's best way repair permissions?  i've tried removing group, forcing updated permissions down child objects, adding group in , pushing permissions down again, didn't have effect.  looking @ having re-initialize member of replica set, i.e. drop machine replication, nuke folder, add machine in , let rebuild other servers?

any useful appreciated!

 

hi,

please let clients check dfs tab of the target dfs namespace folder, check folder target they accessing (like \\server\share). try access server directly see if issue persists (although mentioned fine "go 1 of other servers", make sure same meaning).

in addition, whether offline files enabled? if so, disable it, reboot , test again.
