Set local domains servers?

[pbw]

Win 2003 Active directory

Three "domain controllers"

Two are at the main site, one is a remote with a slow connection.

My problems start here several workstations at the main site want to authenicate using the remote server with a slow connection....slow logons! :-X

What would be the best way to force these workstations to use one of the two servers at the main site?

Thanks

-Thoughts create sites referenced by subnets?

Use the AD Sites and Services to create new sites, and associate network subnets to the proper site. Move the DC's into the proper site containers, and within the next few replications clients should be using the closest DC for authentication purposes (except password changes - those always go through the PDCE first).

That is what I was thinking just unsure. Thanks for the help!
