If this has been answered or is totally newb, I apologize but I am a programmer and not a network guy. Please point me in the right direction.

What I am trying to do is create a separate forest called something like mydomain.com as a virtual domain, but keep the connection to the corp net so that I can transfer bits.

I am using windows server 2008 R2 as my desktop operating system, and I have 6 windows server 2008 R2 VMs running on its hypervisor (one of the VMs is a DNS/DC). I cannot establish a one-way trust with the corp net since there's too much red tape at my company.

Is it possible to have my VMs running on my hypervisor while joined to the mydomain.com domain, but still keep corp net access through a second network adapter?

My bad solution to this problem is to use snapshots. One snap shot with corp net access and the corresponding network adapter that I roll back to whenever I need to get net access, and then reset its network adapter to join mydomain.com once I have the bits transferred.

Is there a better way? I want to be able to set my own static IPs/etc, so having my own DNS/DC is necessary. There's a lot of red tape.

Thanks

What do you need when you're accessing corp net? If you want some applications to authenticate itself as a domain user from your corp net while accessing some network resources when you're logging on as a user from your personal domain, try use cmdkey http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc754243(v=ws.10).aspx which lets you specify which user you want to use when accessing a remote machine.
