Hi,

I've got one domain, three sites on different subnets routed across
hardware VPN's

One site has the master DC and is a GC.

Second site has an additional DC and is also a GC

Third site has only PC's..no server..

First two sites are setup in Active Directory Sites and Services and
their subnets listed.
All working no problems.

How do I go about setting up authentication/logon server for the third
site which only has PC's

Which site ought they authenticate to ?

How would you go about setting this up in Active Directory Sites and
Services.

Surely as they are on a different subnet they perhaps aren't
authenticating correctly ?

Jim.
