    Adding a second DC in a different location

    It looks to be fixed now after I corrected the IP address in DNS.

    Adding a second DC in a different location

    When I originally set up the 2nd DC, it was here in New York - then we shipped it to LA. When I ping it from the NY DC using the DNS name, it uses the old IP address - not the current one.

    Adding a second DC in a different location

    Thanks again Keshav. So far, it looks to be a DNS issue. Firewall is disabled on both DC's. I can ping both ways successfully by IP address but not by DNS name. Event Log gives File Replication Event ID 13508 on both DC's (pasted below). I have yet to run DCDiag, but will soon. Event Type...

    Adding a second DC in a different location

    Another thing - when I changed the admin password in AD on the NY DC, the changes did not come into effect on the LA DC; it is still using the old password.

    Adding a second DC in a different location

    Here's the current situation: Los Angeles location is using the DC at New York location. We are shipping a new server out to act as a DC in LA. We want LA to look to that DC - not the one in NY. We don't want to create a child domain because we want to provide redundancy in case one of DC's goes...
