Title: Multihomed Domain Controllers

You might want to then create entries in the host file on the backup server so that you guarantee that the backup server always uses the right network connection.   From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Robert Rutherford Sent: 12 July 2006 12:57 To: ActiveDir@mail.activedir.org Subject: RE: [ActiveDir] Multihomed Domain Controllers   No issues, if you...   Go to the TCP/IP settings of the backup network card, click advanced, goto the DNS tab and untick register the connection in DNS.   Cheers,   Rob     Robert Rutherford QuoStar Solutions Limited   The Enterprise Pavilion Fern Barrow Wallisdown Poole Dorset BH12 5HH     T: +44 (0) 8456 440 331 F: +44 (0) 8456 440 332 M: +44 (0) 7974 249 494 E: [EMAIL PROTECTED] W: www.quostar.com                         From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Jeff Green Sent: 12 July 2006 11:43 To: ActiveDir@mail.activedir.org Subject: [ActiveDir] Multihomed Domain Controllers Hi,      First posting to this list but I've lurked quite a while and I've been very impressed by the quality of replies by the gurus. My question is regarding the advisability of having multihomed DCs. Basically I want to run backups over a separate GbE and as my servers have dual inbuilt NICs this seems an obvious route to take. I know there are some issues with DNS (I have a DNS integrated AD). Would this cause replication problems, etc ? Any other "gotchas" ?                           Many Thanks, --- Jeff Green Network Support Manager SAPIENS (UK) Ltd t: +44 (0)1895 464228 f: +44 (0)1895 463098 "I dream of hover cars and old transistor radios ...
