I need to stop computers from logging into one specific Site DC

[Seanwho]

We are having problems with replication between two sites and to eliminates certain issues with software loaded on one of the Sites DC. What we want to do is disable the DC on site 2 so none of the users can login except via Site 1 DC. What would be the best way to perform this as each site have different subnets?

thanks

How about disabling the Netlogon service on that DC?

Mark,

will this just restrict computers from using this DC to log on to and still allow the DC to remain on the domain and communicate with another DC and receive data from othe PC's on the domain?

Diabling Netlogon will do as it says, no-one can logon to that server over the network.
You can communicate with other servers and receive data, UNLESS there is any software requiring a login of course!
