Hi All,<br />
<br />
we have a head office and few branches. Every branch is on permanent VPN(ipsec) connection to head office. <br />
In head office we have domain controller , and exchange , and each branch office has its own domain controller . users in branches are connected to our exchange trhu RPC/HTTP.<br />
<br />
would it be possible to join branch offices with our head office so everyone would be using AD in head office. or maybe there is some other solution to improve the management of all networks etc.<br />
<br />
thanks
