Important DFSR SYSVOL migration KB's you should be reading

Ned here (back from vacation, so don't worry - I'm getting to comments and emails as quickly as I can). If you are planning on doing a DFSR SYSVOL migration, please make sure you give the following KB's a thorough read before starting:

• SYSVOL migration to DFSR unnecessarily replicates or conflicts files in Windows Server 2008
• Data loss occurs after you use the Dfsrmig.exe tool to migrate the SYSVOL share from the FRS to the DFSR service in a Windows Server 2008-based domain
• A SYSVOL share migration from FRS to the DFSR service fails on a computer that is running Windows Server 2008 if a disjoint namespace is configured in the domain

The first link has some straightforward workaround steps, the other two are actual hotfixes. Feel free to ask any questions you like on the first KB, I wrote it. :-)
