Dfs-aware clients using earlier versions of the operating system (such as Windows NT 4.0) are not able to connect with fault tolerant Dfs roots. They can, however, connect directly to individual Dfs roots that participate in a fault tolerant Dfs. Todo this, substitute the machine name for the domain name in the above Net Use command.
