Hi
As others said, make sure that the DHCP server isn't giving the same scope
of address at the same time.
Here's the link to help you out with that.

Thanks for the links. Here's a little more info. The XdomainDC DHCP
server will be on the same subnet as the new YdomainDC DHCP server (Is
this a problem?) As I migrate branches from Xdomain to Ydomain I will
deactivate the corresponding scopes on XdomainDC and activate said
scope on YdomainDC. Please keep in mind, I still need XdomainDC to
distribute leases for branches that have not been migrated. The cutoff
will occur off hours and testing will be done. There won't be two
scopes active for the same subnet at any time.

YdomainDC will also be a primary DNS server for the Ydomain, but have a
secondary copy of Xdomain DNS data.

Thanks Again!
