Title: Multihomed Domain Controllers

That’s fine. You need to do two things:   This needs to be a backup subnet (so no gateway) In the Network Connections explorer window under tools>advanced settings, prioritize your connections with this one being last (this is only necessary if you need a gateway for the backup subnet for whatever reason).   Thanks, Brian Desmond [EMAIL PROTECTED]   c - 312.731.3132   From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Jeff Green Sent: Wednesday, July 12, 2006 5:43 AM 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 ...
