dfs share needed to move to another physical drive

[joe]

Hi,
I have a HQ that is running windows 2003 R2 and replicating to 3 remote
sites, also running Windows 2003 R2. We have a share folder called "public"
that needs to be moved to a different drive letter, that is physically
connect to same server. Can I just unshare the folder and moved the folder
and reshare? Will this interrupt the dfs? Are there any issues that I will
run into?

thanks in advance

DFS is not concerned with mapped drive letters, that is a client function so no
matter what you do in DFS the same drive letter will be used on the client
unless you change ALL the clients to use a different drive letter.

Um! I think I misunderstood your question. NickT got it.
