Whether or not you're going to need to open ports on the f/w depends on how
you are connecting through it -VPN no, normal AD traffic yes.
For a list of ports see this article:
http://support.microsoft.com/?kbid=150543
I assume that all of these sites are internal? If so, there isn't a
problem. Nor will there be one with a public address, unless the public
address is truly public in that it can be accessed from the Internet. What
IP addresses you use don't matter, as long as the subnets are correctly
defined.
You configure the subnets in AD Sites and Services, and then assign subnets
to sites. With this done, when you run dcpromo, your machine will
'discover' what site it is in and assign itself to that site.
You will need to establish site links. Once these are setup let the ISTG
([Inter] KCC) generate the appropriate connection objects -don't create
manual ones.
The main thing is to get DNS up and running properly before anything else.
Post all of your questions and concerns...and we'll get you through this
endeavour ;-)
