1399962	2015-05-04 05:38:00	Hi i have a question on how to do this in Server 2012 . " Create two folders on File Server 1 & File Server 2 drives. Name the folders Folder1XX and Folder2XX where XX is your initials". Is this some sort of question from server training course ? If so, the task is worded VERY poorly. Is this 2 file servers, or 2 separate server drives ? Or is there more to the task we dont know about? Simple answer... go to c: , right click, create folder , type in name. The task mentioned nothing about shares or permissions . Unless specified/required, dont start giving share access to users .	1101 (13337)

Unless specified/required, don't start giving share access to users . first comments -- Had the same thoughts ;) The simple way works well, thats no different to any other folder on any other Windows PC, ( usually works, but not always) I was looking a bit further ahead as well. Just by the way the question was written, sharing / Permissions is coming I suspect :)	wainuitech (129)

Basically we are to create Domain Controller and then File Server and another two Server related things . Yes looking further there is shares /permissions but not at the moment . Thanks	AppleFan (17097)

A Domain looks different since you'll be using Active Directory as well to add users (& for sharing when it comes) :) Have you gotten to the stage of doing a setup for installing of the Domain section yet ?	wainuitech (129)

1399971	2015-05-16 12:50:00	Ok i have managed to do replication but little problem , hopefully it can fixed soon . This is not happening properally , i refreshed Server FS01 and FS02 and restarted Server , the text document does'nt come up mean a replication is not seen. Question is Add a Text document to FS01\E:\TestShared with your details and verify that replication has occurred to FS02\E:\TestShared Thanks	AppleFan (17097)
