Hi
First you should know that generally isn't a good idea to create several
domains. Can you explain us why you need different domains?
Second, if you decide to ignore the question above and proceed then read

I have 3 locations
each has 2 servers to be setup as DCs.

This is what im trying to do.

domain.com
to.domain.com
fl.domain.com
uk.domain.com

I want to have domain.com and to.domain.com in the main location. How
would i setup domain.com and to.domain.com on the DC's in the main office.
I dont want to have 2 servers for domain.com and aother 2 servers for
to.domain.com in the main office. As domain.com will only be used for the
initial setup.

Also how do i connect the domains over the internet, I have ip tables
firewalls at each location. The servers have local IP addresses, so i'm
guessing I have to setup forwarding on the firewalls. Is this correct?


Thank you for any help
