Unable to restore AD to a separate server.

[John]

Hello,

We are trying to restore our AD env to a separate server.
We do the restore, we put the server on a separate subnet.
When we try to join a machine to that server it fails. Do
we need to do an authoratative restore for it to work?


Thanks

John-

If you are restoring AD to a new server on a new subnet, the restore should
be authoritative.

I have a detailed paper on this but don't want to post it. If you really
want this send me an e-mail off line.

To much risk if things are done incorrectly. You can destroy your
production AD.
