Active Directory Domain Controller

Magic

Hello,


I have 2 domain controllers running in my domain.
Now i have added an additional server in the network which i want to make
the (pri) domain controller.

How can i make sure that the new box will become the "primairy" Domain
Controller?

Thanks,


Pieter

W2K is a multi-master directory. There is not a "Primary" DC.
There is a PDC role FSMO that one DC in each domain must hold.

NTDSUTIL can be used to control which DC owns the various FSMO roles.
