Hi
If you have the Sites and services correctly configured the client will
pick up the correct Site DFS server.
Make sure that your DNS and Sites are properly config.

e.g. We have a DFS spread across 6 sites. If I create a GPO software
install
that gets the msi from the DFS will a workstation in Site A run the msi
from
the server in Site A w/ the DFS

OR

could the msi be run from another server in another site that hosts the
DFS?

Thanks in advance!
