hello . how are you all
I am alex. new member and happy to be here.
I am a net admin of about 180 computers. because of management changes in the corp
, some of "fool brain "managers decide for us to be CHILD of another domain .
now ,I have 2 DC ( main and additional ) in my net. and 1 ANT.VIR srv and 2 FS srv.
because of our corp is joined to the new big corp , we should use their applications
that run from their APP server. those applications are all "ACTIVE DIRECTORY AUTHENTICATION"
based.so they forced me to be child of them JUST for "AD authentication"
I have two ways :
1- obey them and demote my domain controller to child domain.
2- implementing a trust relation ship between my dc and theirs.
if I select the first , I think that this is so "time consuming " for 180 computers
and 220 user profiles( there are some computers with multiple user profile)
because of:
A- migrating user profiles ( there are all local, NOT roaming )
B-MY DOCUMENTS folder ( I cant use "my document redirection" because "mydocument"
folder is exist in drive D but with deferent names for some users)
I hardly select the second solution , because my manager FORCED me to become child
of them. and I hardly refuse.:
is it true to select the first solution or i should select "trust" ? what i your
idea?
dear "site admin" :
I searched in topics, but I did not find a problem similar to mine.
thanks all.
alex.
