Network issues that affect TCP/IP and RPC traffic across firewall or VPN after Windows 2003 SP1

After you install Windows Server 2003 Service Pack 1 (SP1), you may
experience issues that affect server-to-server communication for TCP/IP
traffic or remote procedure call (RPC) traffic across firewall or
virtual private network (VPN) products in rare and specific network
configurations.

Before carrying any troubleshooting, check the following KBs:

Q899148 Some firewalls may reject network traffic that originates from
Windows Server 2003 Service Pack 1-based computers
Q898060 Installing security update MS05-019 or Windows Server 2003
Service Pack 1 may cause network connectivity between clients and
servers to fail

DFSR notes 1

  1. Basic: DFS Namespace and DFS Replication are totally separate things despite the fact that they can work together and often work together
  2. You configure DFSR to replicate physical folders then publish them into namespaces
  3. You can’t create file under DFS namespace? (Access denied.) However you can do so on physical folders
    Answer: this is because target folder can be created only on shared folders. And I grant Read only on those shared folders.
  4. You can add(associate) multiple target folders into one folder in namespace. DFS Namespace will give you chance to create RG(you don’t have to). You will be referred to one of the targets when accessing using DFS namespace.
  5. Looks like we have to create RB then create namespace folder from RB, or vice versa. We can’t create both ready and connect them.
  6. To configure one-way replication, we can disable one of the sending connections in RG. However this is not recommended by Microsoft (see Planning Guide). Instead, NTFS permissions should be used to control replication direction.
  7. Domain controllers don’t have to run on R2. On servers that are involved in replication or act as name space server have to run R2. R2 schema (version 31) is that is required.
