First, make sure the share exists on both servers--it's not clear whether
the share is already created on that second server. Both shares should be on
NTFS volumes and the servers must run either W2K or W2K3.
Next, make sure you have DFS set up correctly. You'll need a domain-based
DFS root and a link under the root that points to two targets, which are the
shares on your two servers. I believe the Help system has procedures for
this--have you tried the Help? I think the terminology might have been
slightly different from W2K than W2K3.
After you have two targets under the link, the option to enable replication
should be there.
A good place for DFS/FRS design guidelines is the Designing and Deploying
File Servers link here: http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?LinkId=16513 This
is for Windows Server 2003 but many of the same concepts apply to Windows
2000.
