My first thought when I read about this was that it's going to be
problematic. I wouldn't do this if there was another way.



Kerberos does not work across a NAT.

nd-dhcp-environments.html)



If you need these DC's to communicate, you would need to maintain their
natted addresses in DNS (in the _msdcs, _sites etc zones). The DC's
would not register the NAT addresses, they would try to register their
true addresses.



Overall the setup is going to be hard to maintain, I would recommend
going back to the drawing board.

Subject: [ActiveDir] "Resending" - Putting a DC Across a Firewall which
is doing NAT



(I didn't see this post come back to me in email, so I'm resending. my
apologies if this is a duplicate.)

Thanks in advance for any input you have.

I'm in the process of figuring out how how to do something and would
appreciate any specific references/guidance on the topic.

I have 2 different 'untrusted' networks from a security perspective. The
IP's between them are NAT'ed so, they don't see the real ip addresses
across the FW. My goal is to add a domain controller to an existing
domain (which wouldn't really see the .

Scenario:
network 1 has
DC1OnNet1 (existing DC in domain.com)
with IP 192.168.0.10
which (via NAT) shows to the other DC as 192.168.1.10

network 2 has
DC2OnNet2 (new DC)
with IP 192.168.4.10
which (via NAT) shows to the other DC as 192.168.5.10

Each network has their own DNS/WINS infrastructure, so I'm thinking that
each side would have its own set of pointers to the NAT addresses. I
just don't know specifically what entries need to occur.

Can anyone fill in all the pieces that I haven't thought of?
