WS08 - DFS resets ACL and owner from links in DFS-Share-folder

07-25-2008

Hi,
we are using ABE on our domain root on W2K3 DCs. This way, users only see on
the dfs-share only folders on which they have access rights.
With our new WS08 DC it wont work, because the NTFS-rights from the links
were reset to rights from the DFS-Share folder and the owner is set to group
"dfs" during service startup.
Are there any registry keys to switch this behaviour off?

Thanks,
Martin
