Note

Most tasks require you to be a member of the Domain Admins group in Active Directory Domain Services (AD DS), unless you have been delegated the ability to manage DFS Replication. To manage a remote server, you might also need to be a member of local Administrators group on the server that you want to manage. If you are the creator of the replication group, you can perform most procedures related to that replication group. For more information, see Delegate the Ability to Manage DFS Replication
