Hi
We have offices in two locations (A+B). The networks are connected together
using a VPN over the Internet (slow connection).
The IT system in office B is newly set up, and I have added a DC (B1_dc -
Win2k3 R2) in office B. In office A we have two DCs (A1_dc + A2_dc - both
w2k3 SP1).
When I am in office B and logon using PC_B1, the logon script is executed
very slowly. When logged in I went to the command prompt and ran the SET
command. The LogonServer was either A1_dc or A2_dc. On another PC_B2 the
logon script was executed fast and LogonServer was set to B1_dc (as
expected).
Then I disabled the VPN connection between the offices and logged on using
PC_B1. It was "hanging" for maybe 30 seconds before it executed the logon
script. Now the LogonServer was B1_dc. Then I enabled the VPN again, and
logged in once more. Now the logon script executed fast and the LogonServer
was B1_dc.
I have now logged out/in several times, and now it looks like it the
LogonServer now always is B1_dc.
I thought the LogonServer should be set to the nearest DC?
Question: How can I - without disabling the VPN - change the default
"LogonServer" as I add new PCs in office B? (I already have PCs that are
very slow - LogonServer is a remote server)
Any relevant information will be appreciated
Best regards
Harald
