Global Catalog Server service

Please respond to "NT

Hello all
I am trying to switch the Global Catalog server role from one DC to
another,
but when I do, nobody can see the new GC, so they cannot login, and I had
to
switch it back again right away.
Our DNS runs on Unix (Bind 8.2) and name resolution has always worked well.
The current GC server has a bad disk, and I am going to have to shut it
down
for some time to ghost the data to a new disk, replace the disk, ghost it
back etc. so the GC service will not be available for some time. I am
pre-testing the configuration before I actually shut it down, to make sure
everything will still keep working.
I'm wondering if I create a second GC server (in the same site) and let
them
both run at the same time for a while. If I do, is there any way I can tell
which GC server is being accessed during login ?
Has anybody seen this problem before ? Is it a DNS error ? (Of course, the
UNIX guys wont let me near their DNS zone files !!)
Cheers
Bud Dawson
