Re: GPO Software Deployment Path Change...

You should have used DFS as Anthony said. But now that you haven't you could:

1: Use ADSIEdit to edit all of the GPOs and change the properties that point to the old location. If you do it this way then use DFS this time.
2: Rename the new server to be the name of the old server as Anthony suggests
3: Use a CNAME to point the old name to the new server, but you'd obvously need and identical share/file structure. Also beware that this wont work unless you disable strict name checking on the new server. http://support.microsoft.com/kb/281308

Cheers,

...I'm removing old File server (SERVER02) where is also GPO software deployment share and other file services.

All Data is moved to SERVER01 and shares, etc.. is samelike how it was in SERVER02.

Now I need to change also GPO software deployment UNC paths if possible? ...one solution is make DNS record for SERVER02 and give SERVER01 ip-address, but I say this kind solution "bubble gum fix"....
