Hello dave Admin,

According to your message, I suggest that you read more about sites and
subnets. Then you can create sites and subnets.

I assume you have win2k domain. I have found the following articles for
you. Hope this helps.

Please pay extra attention to the snippet "Configuring a site".
Active Directory
http://www.microsoft.com/technet/community/events/server02.mspx

Determining Your Active Directory Design and Deployment Strategy

ployguide/en-us/dssbb_over_vgfc.asp

In addition, when you physically move the domain controller Svr2 to Bldg3,
please also do the steps described in the following article.

Pay attention to the snippet "Moving a Domain Controller Between Sites":
HOW TO: Configure Server Settings in Windows 2000

Go ahead and wish you good luck. If you have any further questions, don't
hesitate to get in touch!

Best regards,
