Native 2003 Domain to 2008 Native Domain

[Sam]

Hello all -

I am planning on introducing a 2008 DC into our 2003 Native Domain. Aside
from Forestprep and ADPrep, are there any other "prep" steps I need to take?
I will not be using RODC so I am not concerened with that prep command.

Also, we are running an Exchange 2003 SP2 Server, Sharepoint Sites, SQL 2005
Servers and Team Foundation 2005 and 2008 Servers. Will they function
proparly in a 2008 Native Domain?

Thanks - Sam

Just run adprep /rodcprep, will not have any influence. Normally nothing
else to do.

you should do the RODCPREP, although not required. why? you are already
doing the others and might as well take this along
