Here's another KB on junctions and SYSVOL.
186750 Usage of NTFS 5.0 Junctions in the Sysvol Folder
http://support.microsoft.com/?id=186750
>From your original posts, it sounds like you already went through the
restore process and it was working. Have you checked to see if FRS is
actually working and all you're missing is the junction? If so, replacing
the junction should be an easy fix.
If you need to go down the restore path again, here are some resources.
For the FRS side of SYSVOL, you can read through the following. It gives a
good overview of how FRS works.
Here are some more KBs that deal with recovery/troubleshooting SYSVOL and
FRS issues.

Please post FRS related questions to microsoft.public.windows.server.dfs_frs
and prefix the subject line with "FRS:" to make it easier to spot. Note
that FRS is used to replicate SYSVOL on domain controllers and DFS root and
link targets.
