DFS share folder in use

Hello All, 

    I have an issue where when I try to create a new folder on my DFS share, I receive an error. It creates the "new folder" without any issue. However, when I rename it, I get a folder in use error. I cannot change the name for this new folder. The new folder is not in use by an y other programs. Any ideas?

Thanks

Adam

DFS Namespace & Replication groups actually stored in Active Directory domain NC & not allowing the rename directly. You have to remove the dependency wise.
