Hi
Make sure that the DC isn't offline more than your forest tombstonelifetime.
Do you have an additonal DNS server on that Site1? If yes the users and
assuiming that the computer accounts are using that alternate DNS, they
should be automatically redirected to the alternative site in order to
authenticate with that additiobal DC. If NO make sure that the users are
using any other available DNS server so tehey can get authenticated with
that DC.
Other concers would be having a GC available especially if you have Apps
that need a Gc like Exchange.

I hope that the information above helps you.
Have a Nice day.

I will be needing to take one of our servers (2003 DC) offline temporarely
(dc is located at site 1). How do I point all of the users (that are
located
at site 1) logon authentications to go to our other site (site 2)
temporarely
until the server at site 1 comes back up? Both servers are GC servers and
are
located at separate sites and are on different subnets.
Please advice.
Thanks
Julio
