SUMMARY The File Replication Service (FRS) is a multi-threaded,
multi-master replication engine that replaces the LAN Manager Replication
Service (LMRepl) in Microsoft Windows NT 3.x and Windows NT 4.0. Windows 2000
domain controllers and servers use FRS to replicate system policy and login
scripts for Windows 2000 and down-level clients. You can also use FRS to
replicate files and folders between Windows 2000 servers that are hosting the
same fault-tolerant Distributed File System (DFS) root or child replicas.
This article describes the relocation of the FRS staging directory
for existing FRS replica sets. The steps in this article apply only to the
releases of FRS in Windows 2000 Build 2195, Windows 2000 Service Pack 1 (SP1),
and Windows 2000 Service Pack 2 (SP2).
For additional
information about the process for relocating the staging directory for Windows
2000 Service Pack 3 (SP3) and Windows 2000 Service Pack 4 (SP4) releases of
NTFRS, click the following article number to view the article in the Microsoft
