GPOs being pulled accross WAN when LAN is available! 2

[vincelewin]

Heres a good one......

Site 1 two 2k3 servers one domain.

Site 2 One 2k3 server linked via leased line to site 1 same domain.

A user logs on at site 1 and recieves policy information across the WAN from site 2...

Anyone know if there is a way I can force all pcs at site 1 to query one of the two local servers and all pcs at Site 2 to query their local server before one of the two remote?

Thanks for any help you can offer

Make sure that your subnets and sites are setup correctly. That's how Windows figures out which DCs to use.

This should help it explains how Windows server works out which site it is on so it can recognise WAN and LAN links.
