Tech-Archive recommends: Repair Windows Errors & Optimize Windows Performance

I had to try it myself on a Windows Server 2003 R2 with SP2 and SBS 2003 R2 with SP2.

It seems that the distinction is between the 'domain-based multiple, stand-along single' and you are correct in your interpretation. I always thought that you could create one namespace per computer, and even when I saw the KB article earlier, that's how I interpret it. But after trying it it seems it doesn't work like that.

it's something I know nothing about but the way I read the article is

After you apply this update, Windows Server 2003, Standard Edition can support more than one domain-based DFS namespace. However, this update does not enable Windows Server 2003, Standard Edition to support more than one stand-alone DFS namespace.

Domain member, multiple. Standalone server, single. or is the distinction domain vs standalone DFS? _can_ you have a 'standalone' DFS on a domain member and/or DC?

but like I say, I've played with this _nil_

It still doesn't work. Actually the link to the KB article states it too under "Notes":

"However, Windows Server 2003, Standard Edition supports only one domain-based DFS namespace or one stand-alone DFS namespace per computer."

Just to clarify things....There can be multiple DFS namespaces pointing to different computers, but only 'one' per computer, when the O/S is Windows Server Standard.

Based on this link:

I will be trying this on a windows 2003 R2 Server with SP2 next week.
