I am assuming you have run a dcdiag and a netdiag as a baseline to verify your topology..

I have at least one GC at all sites. Here at the main office I have no less than 3 GC servers. 2 times now, once yesterday and once today I have noticed that when rebooting the original GC I am not able to log on to the network. Can someone point me in the right direction to begin tracking down an explanation as to why one of the other 2 GC's won't authenticate my logon? (they ARE turned on, plugged in and event logs show replication between the servers). ~ Upgrade to Next Generation Antispam/Antivirus with Ninja! ~ ~ <http://www.sunbelt-software.com/SunbeltMessagingNinja.cfm> ~
