7.5.2.Add a Namespace Server (Domain)

If you created a domain-based namespace, perform this task to specify an additional server to host the namespace. Doing so increases the availability of the namespace and allows you to place namespace servers in the same sites as users. If you created a stand-alone namespace, you must skip this task because stand-alone namespaces only support a single namespace server.

To add a namespace server:

1.In the console tree of the DFS Management snap-in, right-click \\domain\Public, and then click Add Namespace Server.

2.In Namespace server, type the name of another server to host the namespace, and then click OK.

After you finish this procedure, click the \\domain\Public namespace in the console tree and review the contents of the Namespace Servers tab in the details pane, which should look similar to the following figure. Notice that two UNC paths are listed. The site of each namespace server is also displayed.

7.5.3.Delegate Management Permissions

You can delegate management permissions so that users who are not members of the Domain Admins group can create domain-based namespaces, and you can delegate management permissions so that users or groups can manage existing namespaces. In this section, you will delegate permissions to manage the namespace you created in the previous task.

To delegate permission to manage an existing namespace:

1.In the console tree of the DFS Management snap-in, right-click \\server_or_domain\Public, and then click Delegate Management Permissions.

2.Type the name of a user or group that you want to manage the namespace, and then click OK.

After you finish this procedure, review the contents of the Delegation tab in the details pane. It should look similar to the following figure.
