what is the easiest way to ensure correct permissions on multiple servers for folder targets (2008r2) DFS-R

i have 5 sites manage , need create replicated folders using domain dfs on @ least 1 server on each site. (2008r2) my aim work out efficient (i.e. least work) of creating shares on each server , ensuring permissions consistent. at start there notionally 1 "master" share , other "satellite" servers connect bi-directionally central one. so if ensure when folders created on satellite servers administrators , system have ntfs full control, folders inherit permissions source folder, or need set permissions on each server? regards roga hi, dfs replication keep ntfs permission synchronize.  when setup dfs replication group, ask primary server. data , ntfs permissions follow data on primary server in initial replication. after initial replication finished, there no primary server anymore - change on ntfs permission replicated other targets.  if have feedback on our support, please send tnfsl@microsoft.com.
