When you attempt to start replication from a Windows 2000 Advanced Server that is a domain controller, the File Replication log contains:
Event Type: ErrorEvent Source: NtFrsEvent Category: NoneEvent ID: 13507Date: 5/24/2000Time: 3:44:54 PMUser: N/AComputer: Description: The File Replication Service cannot start replication set DOMAIN SYSTEM VOLUME (SYSVOL SHARE) on computer for directory winntsysvoldomain because the type of volume \. is not NTFS 5.0 or later. The volume's type can be found by typing "chkdsk \.". The volume can be upgraded to NTFS 5.0 or later by typing "chkntfs /E \.".
If the domain controller is NOT updated with the drive letter for the Domain System Volume Share, this error will occur.
To fix the problem:
1. Use ADSIEdit.msc, from the Support Tools to select the Domain Controllers organizational unit.
2. Select the name of the domain controller (CN=xxxx).
3. Select NTFRS Subscriptions and view the properties of the Domain System Volume Share.
4. Change the property view to Mandatory.
5. Change the FRSRootPath value to indicate drive .
6. Change the FRSStagingPath value to indicate drive .
7. Stop and Start the NTFRS service.
