Authenticating to DC at another site

have a Windows 2000 Active Directory. Several sites each
with its own domain controller.

Clients are Windows XP professional.

At one site in particular, I have about 10 client
machines. All of a sudden today during a storm (which may
just be a coincidense), all but one started to
authenticate logins on a domain controller back at our
main site... making logins very slow.

I am able to determine that the domain controller at the
main site (which also happens to be the PDC emulator) is
authenticating the logins... I am trying to figure out why
the dc at the site isn't doing it (except for the one
machine).

What would cause machines to authenticate at a dc at a
different site??? We are totally lost on this one.

I am running DNS on the server at the remote site as well.
