Question reguarding setup of multiple sites



I have our main site and a remote site. I setup our main server with Active
directory and all seems fine. I setup a second domain controller (for the
remote site) at our main site and got everything working. I then moved that
server to the remote site and changed the ip addresses to reflect the subnet
at the remote site (and in sites and services).
I am able to log into the remote site and replication appears to be working
but I am not sure if the remote server is handling all of the security or if
the main site is. I have a VPN setup with the hardware routing the traffic.

I just have a couple quick questions on setup of the remote server.
This remote server has it's own DNS, Wins, & DHCP.
Where should this remote server point to for it's primary and secondary DNS
(in tcpip settings)? Should I set up anything special in DNS?
Are there any DNS Issues I should be aware of?
Are there any other recommendations for me to verify or setup to help things
move smoothly?

Any (i mean any) help is always appreciated.
Thank You
