ADS and change of IPs/DNS

[JasonPartridge]

Hello all,
I have a situation where I must change my currently routable IP addresses on my network to non-routable 172 ip addresses. My question is will this change "break" active directory? I'm going to have to change my DNS to internal and set up 2 external DNS servers that the internals forward to, and I want to make sure that this will not wreck havoc on my AD structure.

Thanks in advance!

Jason

nope you wont have any probs if you remember to set all IPs right, and DHCP scopes...as long as their all on the same IP your good to go....
only difference really is going to be forwarders to your external DNS servers (or edit the root hints file)

also, if your domain name is public be sure your using a child domain name or a seperate internal name on your domain so you dont run into a conflict when viewing your web page if you haev one
