DFS consolidar carpetas compartidas

buenas, tengo una duda sobre como funciona el dfs,  quiero saber si es posible consolidar distintos shares de diferentes servers en un solo link unc. lo que busco es que en vez de tener 3 unidades mapedas de 3 servidores distintos compartiendo distintas carpetas., tener un solo link dfs que me muestre las carpetas de los 3 servidores como si estuvieran en un solo servidor y aprovechar  access-based enumeration para que al usuario se le muestren de ese link consolidado, solo las carpetas en las que tiene permisos. es posible? si lo fuera posible, podría afectar mucho la performance, el lado del usuario al abrir el link?   desde ya les agradezco las respuestas. saludos, marcelo.     es perfectamente posible, de hecho yo lo hecho alguna vez, y desde el punto de vista del usuario, no nota diferencia en la velocidad de acceso. saludos josé antonio quílez mi blog W...
