I have two forests configured:

1. Internal forest (internal.local), used for employees. 20+ domain
controllers around the world, GCs in each Branch Office. North America
branch offices all synchronize only with Vancouver. South Africa
branch offices all synchronize only with Johannesburg. Bridge all Site
links is not enabled.

2. External forest (external.local) for a web app. We have an external
one way trust so that users from our Internal forest can login to the
web app. There is a conditional forward on the external DC for
internal.local that points to a Vancouver (internal.local) DNS server.

The External Forest is located in Vancouver. When I attempt to add
permissions to in the web app, the server makes an LDAP connection to
one of the DC/GC's in South Africa rather than one of the two in
Vancouver, or 5+ in North America.

Is there an easy way to limit which DCs that the external forest uses?

I hope I posted enough information, if not let me know..
