I have three functioning DCs in our domain. We have 2 locations (Hyde
Park & Kingston). Each has its own subnet (HP = 192.168.1.nnn & Kingston
= 192.168.100.nnn). The sites are connected via a point to point T1.
Each site has a router.

The DC I want to move (HOSPICEDC3)currently has an IP address of
192.168.1.113. I want to move it to the KGN subnet, changing the IP to
192.168.100.113.

I have a site defined as "Kingston" on the domain (currently W2K)
waiting for a DC. Everything is currently in the default (HP) site.

I'm interested in a step by step procedure for moving this server. A
link would be great. I have a pretty good idea what to do, but I'm anal
about understanding what needs to be done before I take step one.

Also, what (if anything) do I need to do to make HOSPICEDC3 the
preferred DC for users in Kingston?

As usual, TIA.....
