MessageAFAIK, yes, since the GUID-versions or whatever it's called, are
newer on your active DC, compared to your inactive. This is also one of the
(main) reasons I choose to have two real DCs.

Hmm, now that you mention it, I guess I should probably bring it online from
time to time to synch it.  Because, I have added an account or two since
creating the backup DC, I'd say.  Great, now I'm afraid of what will happen
when I do bring it online.  Will they automatically handle synching the
accounts and all?  I'd reckon so.

  Your strategy implies you don't do or change anything too often to your
AD. Myself, I'm sort of mirroring the dept setup with DCs, AD and software
deployments (most notably servicepacks and new office versions) before I
roll them out IRL at the dept. I found this way I'm saving myself quite a
few gray hairs... 8-)

  I have just one DC running, but I have a virtual hard drive file backed up
that has a DC installation on it.  I reckon this is ample for home!
