choose logon server

[diaglez]

Hi, i wonder to know if it's possible to configure a WinXP to logon in an specific domain controller.

I have a w2003 domain with several DC(in different subnets) and i want computers in subnet 1 to logon at the server in subnet 1, computers in subnet 2 logon at the dc in subnet 2, and so on...

The problem is that i note that several PCs in subnet 1 made the logon at the dc in subnet 3

P.D. I have configured a WINS server and a DNS server

thanks.

You could make sites. XP will logon to a DC in the same site preferably.

paella33 is correct, using sites is the way to get clients to login via a certain DC, here is a good guide to using AD sites and services

You said different subnets, are these over WAN links or just different subnets on a LAN??
