logonserver

[James]

I have noticed that win2k and xp workstations are logging
into our PDC which is across a wan instead of logging into
the local BDC! How do I set the workstations to use the
local BDC to keep logon traffic off the wan bandwith. I
used the set logonserver command, but it switches back to
the PDC after log off! Does it display the PDC even if
the BDC is actually authenticating the workstation!
Trying to cut down on windows traffic across the wan!!!!!!

If W2k domain make 'BDC' as Global Catalog server
http://support.microsoft.com/?kbid=216970 or ignore GC failures

In NT4 domain use %logonserver% as was suggested.
