Overlapping AD Subnet Boundariesis it really 10.10.0.0/16 or a mistake (/24) ? Because your first site won't be able to joint the other one as it will think it's local and won't sent packet to the gateway (if it's really a /16).
If it's a real /24, then it will works as expected (10.10.41.104 will be attached to the secondary site). If it's a /16 and you need router between both site, your configuration can't work from a network point of view.

Will AD treat a client address of, say, 10.10.41.104 as a client on the secondary site, or will it default to the more general primary subnet? The reason I ask is we now have a need for a second AD site (I can see all the enterprise folks grinning now) and we have quite a number of other subnets that I'd have to manually enter if this is not the case. I don't mind doing it, but I was curious either way.
