You should be able to have two domains share a subnet. For DNS you'd need to add each domain DNS to the other DNS as a secondary zone.

OK, no question!  We must create a new domain which will be a child domain

new domain.

Our current domain is Windows 2003 R2 native.  DNS is fully AD-integrated.
 I realize that we can't just tell our existing domains (our current plus
NY's current) to combine, and that renaming ours to resemble a child
domain of the NY domain WILL NOT WORK.

So, I set up this brand new Win2003 server, run DC Promo, and set it up to
be a controller in a child domain of the NY domain.

Now, how the @#*& do I do DNS?  (I figure I must disable our current DHCP
scope.)  I presume there is no way I can keep the current IP addresses,
right (that is, 10.1.2.x)?  That would also affect our gateway, network
switch, firewall, and other network devices as well.

Hey, if we have to pay out the wazoo for consultants, we have to, but
thanks in advance for any other suggestions, advice, etc which can be
offered.  (No, a link to the CERN black hole web cam would not be
considered a good suggestion, although timely.)
