After you finish the New Replication Group Wizard, click the new replication group named Data Distribution located under the Replication node in the console tree as shown in the following figure:

Notice the four tabs in the details pane: Memberships, Connections, Replicated Folders, and Delegation. Each of these tabs displays different details about the selected replication group, its members, and its replicated folders. Review the following details about each tab.

On the Memberships tab, notice that entries on the tab are sorted by replicated folder and that there are two replicated folders listed. For example, the rows under the Replicated Folder: Antivirus Signatures heading are the members that host the Antivirus Signatures replicated folder. Double-click a member to view per- member, per-replicated folder properties on the General, Replicated Folder, and Advanced tabs. For example, on the Advanced tab, you can view the location and size of the staging folder and Conflict and Deleted folder on the selected member.

On the Connections tab, two connections are listed. Each connection is a one-way replication path, so replication between two members requires two connections that replicate data in the opposite direction. Each connection has a schedule and other settings, such as a check box for enabling or disabling remote differential compression (RDC). Double-click a connection to view its settings.

On the Replicated Folders tab, notice that two replicated folders are listed and that they are not published in a namespace. Double- click a replicated folder to view its properties, such as file and subfolder filters.

On the Delegation tab, review the default users and groups granted permissions to manage the replication group. Any users or groups shown as "Inherited" have inherited management permissions from Active Directory, and you cannot remove them from the delegation list using the DFS Management snap-in.
