DFS Problem - NTFRS

I have a problem similar to
http://support.microsoft.com/default...b;en-us;265365
but I am running Windows Server 2003.

When I create a DFS link called "TEST" there is another folder created
called "TEST_NTFRS_827832" that I can not remove. It is placed in the
folder with all the other DFS links but I can not see it in the
Administation window.
I can also see it when logging into my workstation under F: along with
TEST. When I try to delete the folder it says the file is not
available and has either been moved or deleted. I have deleted the
TEST link under DFS but "TEST_NTFRS_827832" is still there.

Any ideas how to delete this?

Well, I finally got them deleted. I had to turn off replication and
then delete them manually. Can anyone give me a clue on how not to
make this occur next time I create a link?
