Re: Critical Errors in File Replication Service Log

Hmm.. I still need help.

Well I have created the NTFRS_CMD_FILE_MOVE_ROOT file in several places
now and I still get the error. I create the "NTFRS..." file in one
location... wait 24 hrs and if I still get the error.. I delete it from the
one location and create it another ..wait 24 hrs and on .. where should I be
creating it?

Here is my daily error:

The File Replication Service has detected that the replica root path has
changed from "c:\windows\sysvol\domain" to "c:\windows\sysvol\domain". If
this is an intentional move then a file with the name
NTFRS_CMD_FILE_MOVE_ROOT needs to be created under the new root path. This
was detected for the following replica set: "DOMAIN SYSTEM VOLUME (SYSVOL
SHARE)" Changing the replica root path is a two step process which is
triggered by the creation of the NTFRS_CMD_FILE_MOVE_ROOT file. [1] At the
first poll which will occur in 5 minutes this computer will be deleted from
the replica set. [2] At the poll following the deletion this computer will be
re-added to the replica set with the new root path. This re-addition will
trigger a full tree sync for the replica set. At the end of the sync all the
files will be at the new location. The files may or may not be deleted from
the old location depending on whether they are needed or not.

At any one time I have placed the "NTFRS..." file in multiple places

c:\windows\sysvol\domain
c:\windows\sysvol
c:\windows
c:\windows\sysvol\domain\sysvol
c:\windows\sysvol\domain\sysvol\nsprod.local

Where is the "root" ? Where should I be putting it? And if I have put it
in the right place at one time.. what do I do next to make the error go away
and correct the issue? Do I need to reboot after placing the NTFRS file in
the right place? Please help as this is indeed very frustrating.
