HELP! Files trapped in frs-staging folder

[Guest Don B.]

Hi All,

DFS was incorrectly setup on our primary file server. In so doing, a large

number of files were moved to the Frs-staging folder in an encrypted and

compressed state. DFS is now working, but the files will not move

downstream because their change records in the Change Journal were wiped out.

 

We need to unencrypt and uncompress those files to recover them...desperately.

 

FRS packed up the files to move them, to be sure there is a way to reverse

that process?

 

Any thoughts, suggestions, ideas,procedures, etc. are greatly appreciated.

Why don't U migrate to DFS-R (server 2003 R2) ... i've done it yesterday and

everything works like a charm. Much lesser problems that usering NTFRS ...
