Windows 2003 FRS file Filters...

Hello, I apologise for posting in the windows 2000 group, I can't seem
to find
the windows 2003 group. Is there a windows 2003 group? I'm haveing
trouble
with the file filters for FRS in windows2k3. According to the
leterature
the default filter is *.bak,*.tmp,~* which is set in the controling
AD. Now I can't seem to find a document for the win2k3 FRS but the
win2k dcoumentation
claims that setting these flags to "," (just a comma) will allow
"every thing"
to be replicated. I've set the flags in AD and even added the
suggested local
registery keys. Accoriding to FRS diag the filter for the share I'm
intrested
in is ",". However when I copy a file with a .bak extenstion into the
share of intrest. It does not get replicated!

Here's my setup.

Two Domain controllers, Two network attached storage boxes.

DC1 - 2 proc dell running win2k
DC2 - 2 proc dell running win2k
FS1 - single proc nas box running win2k3
FS2 - single proc nas box running win2k3


I made the registry enteries in the win2k3 boxes, and also modifyed
the AD Users and computers SnapIn on the DC's. But the *.bak files
still don't replicate. Even if they have 0 byte counts??? ( should be
instantnoeus!)

Please adivse.

-James
