That solution is fine until the machine is rebooted and netlogon starts again :)
Why not change the DNS SRV record priorities/weights? Or alternatively, place the DC in a separate site, which consists of just 1 subnet (i.e. the subnet where the DC itself lives). If DNS records are removed, then the DC will fail to authenticate and replicate with other DCs. neil -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Dan Holme Sent: 18 May 2005 23:12 To: ActiveDir@mail.activedir.org Subject: RE: [ActiveDir] AD DR - replication lag site I have several large clients who are going this direction and are in testing right now. Things look quite good. I had read somewhere that an alternative approach to preventing authentication to the 'lag' DCs was to stop the Netlogon service. The approach of removing DNS records seems more elegant, and I'll be interested to hear ppls thoughts on these alternatives.
