We have a closed loop WAN. all buildings are connected via
CSU(Adtrans/T1 segments). All lead to mother ship
and go through firewall device to network public router.

inside the wan/LAN ARE private IPs

as such:

server 2000 192.168.1.10 DC1 PDC DNS
server 2000 192.168.2.10 DC2 DNS
server 2000 192.168.3.10 DC3 DNS
server 2003 GC 192.168.4.10 DC4 DNS

is used the nltest /dclistdomain)
and it brings up the DC list with PDC for the first DC
wether it is emulator or not it is there.

all DC point to the PDC/DNS/DC1 for its DNS resolution
as the primary and as the secondary DC2


is this more clearer? the tech says they will not see each other
(island i believe) but why? if they are DNS integrated the
DC are replicating using a different replication system correct.
they do not need DNS to replicate??? or do they.
the DNS has static names for the DC and Static IPs so why would you need to point to a PDC/DNS/DC1 to prevent islanding?

guess wanted yo to see the network configuration and maybe you can shed some light on why this networking engineer who is
MCSE 2000 and CCNP certified says islanding will occur if this isnst set up in this DNS config....if AD-Int replicates all DNS and other AD info on a different system? explain if yo guys know?

help
so i can chat with him and ferrit out his reasoning?
