Sites are used to manage replication and authentication within the forest
over slow links. The domain members and the domain controllers need to be on
the same network/subnet in the site for it to work properly in that domain
members tries to authenticate first to domain controller in the site and
this normally would be a "private" network address. Domain members determine
their site by their network address. I am not sure exactly what you are
trying to do but it would be highly unusual to create a site with public
network address. Another thing to check is that for computers with more than
one network adapter, always place the local lan network adapter used for AD
domain traffic at the top of the priority list in network
connections/advanced/advanced settings. --- Steve
