Insulate?........Does not compute..... forgive me, I'm a technologist. :)
what are you specifically trying to do?

The pdc will (should) be the master browser of the "subnet" it is on.  Sound
like you're a little unclear on one or both the following: 

1. how the MS browser service works
2. ip subnetting.  

If that's the case then query technet for "understanding browsing", and
query google for "ip subnetting", read up on each, then re-post your
detailed rational and plan-of-attack.  I'd recommend you have a more solid
understanding of what's happening here before taking down your production
network.

Subject: Re: Moving PDC behind firewall


Thanks everyone for the info on this admittedly weird request.

Everyone has asked why, here's the reason:

> It's clear (to me at least)the "trusted" LAN is being redefined.

We're wanting to insulate the PDC from the users.

Ed Esgro said "PDC will run but it will not be the master browser for your
10.x.x.x network it will be the master browser for your 192.x.x.x network".
If we put the PDC and user computers on the same logical (10.*) network with
this firewall/router in-between the PDC and users and set the
firewall/router to only forward the protocols we wanted, would this allow
the PDC to be the master browser?  I'm assuming the answer is yes.

Thanks again for everyone's help.
