I have a domain across two offices, each with two domain controllers. How can I make users authenticate to a specific server rather than the quickest?

Thanks guys! Fi.

Your best bet is to create "sites" on your domain controller, and DNS. This will cause the clients to authenticate with the closest DC in their site. For info on how to check the server help files.
