 Posted: Thu Apr 20, 2006 11:38 pm Post subject: AD Question about sites |
 |
|
Scenario:
I have 2 remote sites, siteA and siteB in the same domain. Because their DCs
are in different sites, does this mean that workstations in siteB will never
try to talk to DCs in siteA?
Thanks,
Phil |

As long as you have your subnets set up correctly, the client should talk to
the DC that's on its subnet. The only time it should contact the other DC is
if it's local DC is unavailable.

Generally speaking, the site topology will determine which DCs clients
will communicate with. However, there are other factors--access to
global catalog servers, DNS, etc., that may affect that.
