Re: Floating Computer between domains

Hi
Your machine can only be member of 1 domain at the time.
If your domains are in the same forest, they automatically trust each other, you can use that machine to access to different domains in the same forest as long as the permisssions are setup.
If your doamins are in different forests, you probably need a trust between them and setup the corect permissions to allow access.
If you opt for not having that machine in either domains (workgroup), you can manage your network password access through the local user account under control painel.
As for name resolution keep your machine DHCP, and make sure that you have a DHCP available in both networks, or you can use a alternate address Fixed, and other DHCP, under NIC properties.

Hi All,
In an earlier thread I asked about the ability to take a computer out
of a domain for a long period of time and return it without any
hastles.
Now I'm trying to work out if I can have Two Domains... like this...
Domain A:
DC
DBSVR
COMMSSVR
WORKSTATION
Domain B:
DC
DBSVR
COMMSSVR
Both of these domains need to be on completely different networks
(otherwise the DBSvrs and the Comms servers would interfer)
I need the workstation machine to be able to float between the two
domains (at the flick of a switch)
What are the issues involved in getting this to work at a domain level?
Would the two domain controllers need to be connected externally in
order to form a trust?
Also, What issues could you forsee from a DNS/ARP point of view, Would
the Workstation be confused as the HostNames are the same as before but
different on the new subnet? Should I keep all the IP addressing the
same to solve this, but then would the ARP be confused about mac
addresses?
The main motivation behind this architecture is to be able to switch
the workstation to operate on a development network as opposed to a
production one.
Thoughts Anyone?
Thanks
Josh
