Hello,

I am having a strange occurence in that I see in the sysvol share, open
files from the group policy templates from users whose IP's indicate that
they are in the HQ subnet. I have checked and do not see them validating
against this remote site domain controller.

Is there any way to prevent this, or to distinguish why it is happening?

Thanks.
 
This can occur is Sites and Subnet are not properly configured. Verify that
the correct subnets have been created and linked to the correct site. Verify
that each DC is registering its site specific srv records in DNS. Clients
query DNS to locate DCs in their site, so it is important that DNS is
correct. You should also make sure that the DCs appear under the correct
site in Sites and Services. For more info on how DCs are located see the
