Hello everyone,

The setup of DC1 was done before I was to hire to clean the mess. DC1 has
Exchange 2000 with possible corrupted m drive ( no backup). Overall , DC1
performance warrented to bring a new dc to the domain and move everything to
it.

My guessing why it was setup that way, is because WG box will only see one
connection coming to it from the internal network. This org only has ten
licenses for that box.

This is only explansion that I can come up with. As you can tell , I am not
a gure guy like you guyes. Nor do I have adquate knowledge in AD.
I will do my best through your tips and advice to get this messy network up
and running in the proper way. I will keep you posted ! Thanks for your help
