Is there a way to check if the AD is running correctly,
and to rebuild it if there is something wrong with it.
I am running a SBS 2003 Premium, and I will liketo to
check this.
 
Jose,

The quick way is to install the Support Tools and to run both dcdiag /c /v
and netdiag /v. There are a couple of other tools that would apply if you
had a second Domain Controller ( replmon and repadmin ). However, the first
two will do a really nice job for you.

HTH,

You can also go to the Microsoft website and download a
utility called MPS Reports. This is the primary analysis
tool used by the PSS engineers. There are several
different versions. For Active Directory, download the
MPSReports DirSrv version. Run this on your domain
controller. When it is done it will product several text
documents including the netdiag, dcdiag, repadmin, and
many others. Search through these reports for errors.

This might be a better way. However, it does a lot and it might be
overwhelming....

So, I simply suggested dcdiag and netdiag...
