Hello;

I am going to deploy a Win2k servers in remote offices for file storage and
printing. Currently, all workstations are in the domain. The AD
controllers are at the corporate office. The users transverse the WAN to
authenticate to the Domain. The office will be connected via a VPN to the
corporate office. DNS and WINS are also controlled from the corporate
office, however, each office has it's own internet connection.

Here's my questions:

    Any problems using a Branch to Branch VPN with Win2k/AD?

    Do I want the server in the remote office to be a Domain Controller?

    Do I want to make the remote office server a DNS server as well?

    Do I want to make the server a WINS server for the office?

Thanks
