This
was the behavior in Win2K as well. You need to select one of the existing
site links when you create the new site D. You can just pick
one. Then create your new site link and pick sites A and D to be in
it. Finally, go to the properties of the site link you picked while
creating Site D and remove site D from it.

Subject: [ActiveDir] creating a new site in AD (Server 2003)I want to create a new site within my AD (Server 2003) to help guide particular subnet clients to closeby servers. While I have done this before when our forest was Windows 2000, the current Active Directory Sites and Services GUI seems to be throwing me for a "chicken and egg" loop:1) while creating a new site "D", it asks to identify an existing site link. I have two: one that defines the main site A with remote site B; and one that defines the main site A with remote site C. Neither seem to be correct but I MUST pick one to continue.2) If I try to create a new site link (must pick two) that would describe the new connection, I can't since the new site doesn't exist yet!I must be missing something very simple. This shouldn't be a difficult task. Thanks for any help!Mike Thommes
