Hi all,

I am building up a new server for our remote office. The remote office have
an address of 172.19.2.X. This server will be promoted to Active Directory
and Global Catalog. I like to build the server in-house (HQ) and do all
configurations and promote the server with the remote office IP address, when
done shipped to that office. The problem is, HQ has a different IP address,
vLAN and gateway. Question is and if possible, how do I make it work by
assigning the same IP address as the remote office as well as the subnet and
gateway? By assigning the remote office ip address, i cannot ping HQ network
and the server that I assign with the remote office address.

Please help. Thank you.

Hello MatriX,

No need for the remote ip. Just install it in the main network completely,
after everything is running and checked with dcdiag/v, netdiag /v and repadmin
/showreps, change the ip settings to the remote subnet and shutdown the server.
After restarting in the remote office, start with pinging to main office
via ip address, computername and FQDN. If this is running fine, check again
with dcdiag, netdiag and repadmin for errors.
If you still will use the remote ip you have to add a router in the main
network and simulate on this way the remote network.

Best regards

Hi Meinolf Weber,

Thank you.
The remote office has its own dedicated lan setup already. So, I can just
promote the server in-house with the server name and ip address. Once that
is all taken care of. I can just ship the server to that office. Once there,
I match the TCP/IP setting to match that office, right? How about the, AD
sites and services, do I just need to move it to that site and correspond the
subnet address to that remote office location?

Thanks.

Hello MatriX,

Yes, i forget the ADSS, when you have configured the new ip for remote site
and shutdown, also move the dc to the respective subnet in ADSS. If you then
startup the server the basics should be correct.
