Here's the question..
You have 40 remote locations. Some DCs are running NT4, 2k, 2k3.
Each location has it's own Primary DC (own Forest). You want to set up AD and DNS replication across all sites.
All locations are using IP address scheme of 10.11.x.x/14 (subnet of 255.255.255.0)
Locations are all using T1 or Frame.
All Locations use the same proxy server, thus all internet traffics routes to 1 location. (outside DNS traffic routes through the proxy, so all DNS servers must forward DNS requests to the DNS/Proxy server for internet resolution.)
How would you go about setting up DNS and AD replication.
(this is my headache)
Now, I've tried to set up a trust between my location (Maumee/win2k3) and my remote location (Everett/win2k). The 2k3 server is on win2k functional level. I can ping everett's server from maumee's server. I can ping maumee's server from everett's server. External trusts are created on both servers. Incoming trusts created on both servers. When I attempt to validate the trust, neither server can find the other.
All the stuff I'm reading on says this really should be done when the servers at sitting side by side.. get them working, then put the remote one on site and promote it.
There servers are already promoted to DC level.
And if anyone has another site with a strong AD forum, please advise.
haha thanks.
