Re: New Site, can't get logons using local DC

Did you add the remote sites ip addresses to the remote site in AD Sites and
Services?

below but go to TechNet and look up "Manage Sites"

Create a subnet
Updated: January 21, 2005


To create a subnet
1.
Open Active Directory Sites and Services.

2.
In the console tree, right-click Subnets, and then click New Subnet.

Where?

. Active Directory Sites and Services/Sites/Subnets


3.
In Address, type the subnet address.

4.
In Mask, type the subnet mask that describes the range of addresses
included in this subnet.

5.
Under Select a site object for this subnet, click the site to associate
with this subnet, and then click OK.


Notes

. To perform this procedure, you must be a member of the Domain Admins
group or the Enterprise Admins group in Active Directory, or you must have
been delegated the appropriate authority. As a security best practice,
consider using Run as to perform this procedure. For more information, see
Default local groups , Default groups , and Using Run as .

. To open Active Directory Sites and Services, click Start, click
Control Panel, double-click Administrative Tools, and then double-click
Active Directory Sites and Services

Hello,

I have two sites connected via a T1 VPN. I just added the 2nd site and
put
in a new DC. The DC is a Global Catalog server. I previously added
computers to the domain prior to the new site addition. When I do a set
l I
see that a remote DC is the logon server. What is trick for designating
a
more local logon server?
