Leveraging Microsoft DFS-R for Software Distribution
In the sales calls prior to purchasing Desktop Central, I was told that it would work with Microsoft's DFS-R (formerly DFS/FRS). We are big users and want to be able to leverage DFS with replication to push out packages to branch offices the same way we have for years. Example:
\\dfsname\global\software\packages would exist on all servers in all branches even though the physical servers would be different for each location. The agent running in the workstation should see the same DFS path regardless of location. Do I need to map the DFS path to a drive letter for MEDC to work with it? New to the product and would appreciate feedback.
