I like to set up a Romote access server for our remote clients. Basicly the remote clients would dial in to the RAS.
VPN is not an option(we can' get a static ip from our isp)

we already got a domian controller that authenticates users.
Should our RAS also become a second DC or just a member server. If the answer is yes to member server, then how would remote clients be authenticated?

Should the RAS member server be on the same domain as our Domain controller, or can two different domains work?

I basicly asking for the best suggustion on how to make this RAS DAIL IN work.
 
Techhus,

Here is a litte light reading for the weekend...




If you run into any problmes or have specific questions while setting it up, post back here and we can help.

Oh, and it's just my opinion, but I would run RAS on a Member Server and not a DC for security reasons.


Have fun,
