File Replication Service

[Scott Schaffer]

I have a Win2000 SP4 server and I am trying to add a new
DC to my domain. I am getting the following error in the
FRS log.

Event Type: Error
Event Source: NtFrs
Event Category: None
Event ID: 13559
Date: 8/9/2004
Time: 3:31:59 PM
User: N/A
Computer: xxx9000
Description:
The File Replication Service has detected that the replica
root path has
changed from "c:\windows\sysvol\domain"
to "c:\windows\sysvol\domain". If
this is an intentional move then a file with the name
NTFRS_CMD_FILE_MOVE_ROOT needs to be created under the new
root path.
This was detected for the following replica set:
"DOMAIN SYSTEM VOLUME (SYSVOL SHARE)"

Changing the replica root path is a two step process which
is triggered by
the creation of the NTFRS_CMD_FILE_MOVE_ROOT file.

[1] At the first poll which will occur in 5 minutes this
computer will b
e
deleted from the replica set.
[2] At the poll following the deletion this computer will
be re-added to
the replica set with the new root path. This re-addition
will trigger a full
tree sync for the replica set. At the end of the sync all
the files will be
at the new location. The files may or may not be deleted
from the old
location depending on whether they are needed or not.
------------------------------
It would seem that "c:\windows\sysvol\domain"
to "c:\windows\sysvol\domain"
are the same. What do I need to do to correct this?

TIA, Scott
