I have the following AD DFS (Windows 2003 R2):

DFS Root name: members

DFS Link: me
DFS Link Target: \\myserver\meshare

DFS Link: you
DFS Link Target: \\myserver\youshare

I need to change all the link targets to \\theirserver, while keeping everything else the same. I have created the shares meshare and youshare on \\theirserver already, with the files they will hold.

How to accomplish this from command line (I will batch it)? Will "dfscmd /move" be the command to use? If so, what would the exact syntax be?
