Redirecting folders at branch locations

by jon . Updated 20 years, 2 months ago

Location 1, server name SERVER1.
Location 2, server name SERVER2.

SERVER1 is the Active Directory PDC
SERVER2 is a backup.

If a user at location 1 whose folders are redirected based on group policy to \\SERVER1\FLDREDIR$\USERS\%USERNAME% logs into a workstation at location 2, provided the two servers are setup properly on a VPN tunnel, would the user be directed across the slower connection to the other server for synchronization?

How could I setup group policy to ensure that the user synchronizes with a replicated folder on the local server instead of over the network.

Also, should I create OU’s for each branch and set unique policy for each redirect setting for the users at those branches so they are redirecting to local servers?
