How to: Steps to Publish Shared Folders in Active Directory in Windows Server 2008

We can publish shared folders to Active Directory so that users can search for share folders in Active Directory. When we publish folders in Active Directory, we can provide a description or keywords with the shared folder. When clients need to locate that shared folder, they can use an argument based on object name, keywords, or description.
The only limitation with shared folder is that if we move the shared folder from one server to another, then clients will be unable to access the shared folder, since shared folders are mapped to a drive and original location has been changed.
We can publish shared folder from the Active Directory Users and Computers snap-in.
