I bet the client computers in the new office are going to be super excited to be 'primarily authenticated' by the domain controllers in Site1. That's the kind of thing that really gets them going!

I'm curious if the domain controllers in Site1 can handle the increased load from the new office. Might be worth considering load balancing or additional resources.
