Can I Set Up DFS Links at the Top Level Instead of the Second Level?

Asked By TechWizard92 On

I'm experimenting with DFS Namespaces and currently can set links like this: \\servernamespacefolder1 pointing to \\hostfolder1. However, I'm wondering if it's possible to create a link like \\serverfolder1 pointing directly to \\hostfolder1 without including the namespace. Any tips on how to do this?

No, you'll need to include the namespace portion when using DFS Namespaces. Also, using \\domain instead of \\server is a better practice.

It should work as \\domainnamespacefolder1. Always use the namespace instead of just the server. In my setup, I'd go with \\labnet.localISOstuff.

Sure, but I’d suggest using \\ad.domain.com instead of just \\server. It could give you better clarity in a complex environment.
