...sitting here in California at almost midnight with just the weekend to get done all I need to do on the network and I fear this may be derailing my plans. This article on the Samba Wiki https://wiki.samba.org/index.php/Changing_the_IP_Address_of_a_Samba_AD_DC seems to suggest I need to demote and repromote if I change the address, is that also the same if I change the subnet? I'm sorry if that's a dumb question, but I'm having severe problems with these servers and I really don't want to screw anything up because I try something stupid.

No, the DC's ipaddress points to the DC, so if you change either, it is easier to demote and re-join rather than trying to change every instance of the IP or name. You probably could change either, but, because they...

I've asked a couple of other questions on here, which people have kindly answered and I'm waiting for the opportunity to implement what they have suggested. In the meantime: We are running out of IP addresses! We currently use 192.168.2.0/24 and it's proving to not be enough addresses. I'm considering changing to 192.168.4.0/22 to virtually quadruple the number of addresses we

Hi, i renamed the default-first-site-name with the windows-tools and now I see that serveral DNS-entries still point to the default-first-site-name instead of the renamed site-name. Today I joined a second DS to the renamed site wich worked perfectly, the DC's DNS-entries are in the right site. Actually I don't see any problem but should the entries not be in the renamed site and the
