by the way...
are your sites and subnets setup correctly?
that way the MMC tools should select the correct DC (DC in the same site as
your client)

Thank you, that fixed it. Also can I set the default max # of displayed
items in filter options. The default is not enough and if I have already
navigated I have to start over when I adjust this setting.

Starting Active Directory MMC consoles from the command-line
Active Directory MMC consoles, including Active Directory Users and
Computers (dsa.msc), Active Directory Domains and Trusts (domain.msc) and
Active Directory Sites and Services (dssite.msc), provide command-line
options that allow you to start a console focused on a particular domain
or
domain controller. The command-line options support both fully qualified
domain names and NetBIOS names.
The command-line options are:
.. /domain=FullyQualifiedDomainName
.. /domain=NetBIOSDomainName
.. /server=FullyQualifiedDomainControllerName
.. /server=NetBIOSDomainControllerName
You can use these command-line options to run the Active Directory MMC
consoles directly from the command line, or you can create a shortcut to
start a console and add the appropriate command-line options to the
shortcut. You can also use the command-line options with any custom
consoles
that you create. For more information about creating and saving console
files, see Windows interface administrative tool reference A-Z: Microsoft
Management Console.
Command-line examples:
.. To start Active Directory Users and Computers focused on domain1,
type:
dsa.msc /domain=domain1
.. To start Active Directory Users and Computers focused on server1,
type:
dsa.msc /server=server1.domain1
.. To start Active Directory Sites and Services focused on server1, type:
dssite.msc /server=server1.domain1
.. To start Active Directory Domains and Trusts focused on server1, type:
domain.msc /server=server1.domain1
Notes
.. Do not use both a /domain and /server command-line option at the same
time.
.. The /domain options can only be used with Active Directory Users and
Computers.

When running active directory users and computers is it possible to set
the
default domain controller to my own. Currently it goes to any writable
dc
it
can find and it is usually not mine for some reason. Thanks.
