and Services?

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

Where?

. Active Directory Sites and Services/Sites/Subnets

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

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?
