Network expansion Win2003

by david.roebuck . Updated 20 years, 9 months ago

My company is expanding rapidly to include a 2nd building some 50 feet away from our present 1. In order to achieve some seperation between the 2 buildings to avoid bottlenecks and so on this new building we be operating as a 2nd site on a subnet.
The network will be extended with a 100Base-T LAN extender.
Great!

This is where i get a little Hazy, i have decided to give the site a seperate ADSL line to the outside world and a seperate File/Print server (again reducing cross network traffic) But but how do i actually assign new hardware to this subnet and do i need a new DC with DHCP and DNS? to serve this site?
Am i making sense here?

I am just a little bit hazy on how i can seperate this subnet and how i can assign things to it. MS books online arnt really helping

Thanks for any help, i apreciate any comments
