In a site called Pune we have 2 domain controllers which are physically located in 2 different buildings connected by 8mbps line. that's your problem = DCs in the same site will be treated the same - and if both buildings are in the same subnet, then there's not much that you can do about it (you

you can't change anything in the site-configuration itself (a site is meant to treat every DC basically the same way). What are your reasons for not wanting to change the site config (i.e. adding another site) - other than not having the permissions to do so? The other options tend to bite you

If I understand your original post, some of the workstations are authenticating to the DC in the other building (same site), and some are using a DC in a completely different site. The other responses answer the first issue (all DCs are treated the same within a site), but don't address the
