cloning domain??

[Nate]

I would like to set up a test domain that is an exact
clone of our production domain. We are running 2000
server and active directory in Native Mode. Does anybody
have any suggestions on how to go about this?

Thanks,
Nate

Add a new member server to the domain, then DCPromo it to a domain
controller. Move it off the production network to your test network then
sieze the FSMO roles.

Remove the server from the production domain.
