Hello,
If you not going for a single domain solution it should be because you have
bad bandwidth between your branches and much data to replicate, I don't
think that is the case so I should go for a single forest, with a single
domain. I'm strongly recommend to have the domain controllers running DNS
for AD. Your past authentication issues should not be a problem with AD
since you can define sites and subnets and decide that the local office
connects to its own DC.
