Would think it would decrease traffic in the long run because of users at that end on the WAN pipe can retrieve locally cached lookups.     Shawn -----Original Message----- From: Roger Seielstad [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Monday, July 14, 2003 4:20 PM To: '[EMAIL PROTECTED]' Subject: RE: [ActiveDir] Quick AD integrated DNS question :) I'd expect it to be minimal, although I don't have a lot of emperical data to prove it.     -------------------------------------------------------------- Roger D.

Additionally, though, I don't think DNS replication traffic is all that considerable. The worst data hog in DNS is the resolver cache, which isn't replicated.     -------------------------------------------------------------- Roger D.

I consider that if a location requires a DC, it also requires local DNS.     -------------------------------------------------------------- Roger D.
