Re: Site Creation

Hi!

If you have VPN tunnel between sites this shouldn't be necessary. If there
is a firewall it should be confugured to allow AD replication, please check
these two articles:

Would you know if I have to create any static mappins on the firewall
between the two DCs?

No, the bandwidth is fine.

Hi!

That depends on available bandwidth of your WAN link and size of Active
Directory database. If WAN link is slow and database is big, your
suggestion is right. Otherwise you could add new DC on CO location.
Install Support Tools and use Replication Monitor to monitor or force
replication after you're done.

Thank you Toni. The NY site is our current site and running. I have to
create the CO site now. Now, as far as building the DC, should I
promote my server to a DC while on my NY domain and then move it to the
CO site once I am done?

Hi!

1. Create two sites (for example NY-Site, CO-Site).
2. Move DCs to appropriate sites.
3. Create and configure inter-site link.
4. Create subnet object 192.168.1.0/24 and link it to NY-Site.
5. Create subnet object 192.168.100.0/24 and link it to CO-Site.

You should use Active Directory Sites and Services to perform these
steps.

Note: You can rename "Default-First-Site-Name" to NY-Site.

I'm a bit confused with the steps that I have to take with the
following
senario:

In my current NY location, I have two Windows 2000 AC domain
controllers. I
have to setup a new site in CO. The CO office will have about 20
employees.
I want to install a DC in CO and have it authticate users there. The
two
offices will communicate through a VPN tunnel, which is proved by two
Cisco
PIX firewalls. All ports within the VPN tunnel are open. The subnet
of the
CO clients are 192.168.100.x and the subnet of my current location is
192.168.1.x.

Can the experts out there help me create this? Thank you...
