Hi,

We have several windows 2000 adv servers in a domain. Two of them have GC selected.
These are the main and apllication server.
When i shutdown the main server i can't logon remote to the apll server.I see the logon screen and enter user/pass but then nothing. As told GC is enabled and the server is in native mode. Please help!

Thanks in advance.

I think you habe to make sure it's a GC, does it happen the other way around too ?

Let me change the question.
I know the first DC in a domain is automatically a GC server. How to set up a 2nd GC server in the same domain.
And how can i be sure that server is a GC server, so that when i shutdown the original GC server i can continue working on the 2nd GC.

BTW the other way around makes no problems.
