This may sound basic but I need to ask anyway before I get AD implemented.
I am not quite sure what I should set my 'Group Scope' to..Domain Local or
Global.
I have 2 sites linked via a slow connection that are similar and are in a
single domain. I plan on having a Domain Controller in each site to control
security and replicate files from the remote site to the main site.
Licenses will be shared between the sites.
I plan on having different groups for each site that are similar (QA_Site1,
QA_Site2, Engineers_Site1, Engineers_Site2, etc).
Should these groups be Domain Local or Global?
Anys suggestions?
I appreciate any help you can give.
Thank You
