Hello David,

Thank you for your reply.

Please post this question in the
microsoft.public.windows2000.Active_directory newsgroup. The
microsoft.public.windows2000.Active_directory newsgroup is primarily for
issues involving Active Directory. We recommend posting appropriately so
you will get the most qualified pool of respondents, and so other partners
who regularly read the newsgroups can either share their knowledge or learn
from your interaction with us.

In addition, I am glad to provide some information to you.

When a slow link is detected, the default behavior is as follows:

Policies that are applied by default:
         Registry settings (from administrative templates) must always be
applied--this cannot be changed
         Security policies must always be applied - this cannot be changed)
         EFS recovery policy
         IP security
Policies that are not applied:
         Application Deployment
         Scripts
         Folder Redirection
         Disk Quotas

Therefore you could try to change the slow link detection speed to be
higher.

To change the slow link detection speed for Windows 2000 when user Group
Policy is being applied, expand the User Configuration node and navigate to
the Administrative Templates\System\Group Policy folder. Modify the Group
Policy slow link detection policy.

| Thanks Alex...If I may call you Alex.
| I have 3 subnodes and 1 central office.
| ->ISDN lines at remote locations start at a Pipeline ISDN router (10.0.x)
| network, I have each node set as a class C, a server at each location.
| ->Internal ISDN router is a Ascend Max (10.0.1.1)
| -> Internet connection is through a Netscreen Firewall, We have a VPN
| connection set through this. (10.0.1.2)
| -> Internally we use a company called T-Speed for a broadband connection
| (Microwave 1-6MBPS) at main location
| -> On Node 10.0.3.x we also have a T-Speed Connection
| -> DNS server uses 10.0.1.1 as gateway, which forwards to 10.0.1.2 for out
| to the internet.
| -> I have disabled the 10.0.3.x ISDN connection, and enabled an internet
VPN
| through my Firewall (10.0.1.2)
| -> Windows 2000 Network Main domain is on 10.0.1.x (GC at 10.0.1.20, Exch
| Server 10.0.1.30)
| -> on node 10.0.3.x there is a trusted domain (I didn't set it up)
| -> When we set up the VPN the remote server took all available bandwidth
| through the tunnell, and there was no room for other traffic through the
| connection. I throttled the connection down to 384k, and I was able to
| access the internet.
| -> The ISDN is a dual B channell (384K)
| -> switching over, I disabled the ISDN connection through the Ascend, and
| enabled the VPN
| -> Database is on 10.0.1.20 (Master GC) and I if the connection goes down
we
| cannot access the database, so I think it is all in 1 place
| -> Right now I have a router problem, so 10.0.4.X, 10.0.5.X cannot see the
| internet, I have a the person who sold me the ISDN routers coming by today
| to fix that problem.
| -> Before I throttled down the bandwith the VPN tunnel expanded to the
full
| bandwidth available from traffic between the servers, and there was no
| available bandwidth for anybody.
| -> I would (ideally) like to be able to have the connection be down and
use
| the SQL at all locations, but I have security concerns.
| -> I think that there is a better way for the directory structure (as in
| sub-domains not trusted Domains)
| -> I would like to let all connections run at full speed.
| -> I have a 512K DSL connection that I will be changing over at 10.0.4.X
| once we get this all figured out.
|
| I really apreciate your help on this, I understand what I needed to set up
| the Active directory on a local system, but I am not sure once we get to
| WANS and routers how things need to be to replicate. Is there a book or
text
| I could use to help me through this?
|
| Thanks again,
| David Bock
