Dear Spiceheads,
I am posting my friends question here. He want to setup a child domain in his company. Actually, they have one domain controller in company right now with windows 2003 installed (AD, DNS).
They want to install a child domain in their another unit so that the users of other unit can connect to child domain in the absence of parent domain controller.
They shutdown their servers in evening every day, that's why they want to install it.
Will he have to rejoin his users to child domain??? eg: child.abc.com
Will he have to change any DNS settings in parent domain???
How will he create a trust between parent and child domains???
Please share your best knowledge regarding this matter.
