Maybe - I have no idea what the requirements, topology, stability, etc is here. Cached creds will work in the short term though.

Should she also consider making the new server a DC + Global Catalog for login purposes when connectivity between sites is lost?

I'd build the new server at the main office and join it to the domain. There should be no issue with then moving it to the new office and giving it a new IP address. -Malcolm From: Brian Desmond [mailto:br...@briandesmond.com<mailto:br...@briandesmond.com>] Sent: Wednesday, June 02, 2010 13:28 To: NT System Admin Issues Subject: RE: setting up 2008 server for remote office I'd definitely use the existing domain. Communication between subnets will happen by way of the router/firewall device handling the VPN tunnel.

The main office has a Windows 2003 DC with the subnet of 192.168.2.x. The remote office will be setup with a Windows 2008 R2 server and a subnet of 192.168.3.x. Some users in the remote office will need access to some data from the main office server. VPN are use for the connectivity between these two sites. Would I be better to join the 2008 server to the current 2003 domain or setup a brand new domain with a trust relationship?? The physical 2008 server is currently in the main office. If I choose the first option, should I run it up as a member server before moving it to the remote office then join it to the 2003 domain?? Will this server able to make a contact with 2003 server as they are on the different subnet? Any help would be appreciated. Thanks in advance.
