DFS: Lost files after perms changed on one site :(

Hi,

I changed perms on a folder that is set for using DFS.
For some reason all files that were made after the perm change were put in the ConflictsandDeleted folder and the earlier files were kept, thus losing the latest data.
Replication is scheduled for 18:00 nightly so users ended up with the previous days files.

Would if be that the permissions made the 'last write wins' to go in to effect. Thus wiping changes that were made at the other site?

Should changing perms cause this to happen?

Ta,
b
