New 2003 DC

B

boogybaz

Hi,

I have a Win2k Domain with three DC's all on service pack 4. There is
one server running Exchange 2000. There are also a mix of 2000/2003
member servers in this Domain.
I plan to install a new server, which needs to be a domain controller,
running Windows 2003R2.

Running a similar setup using Virtual servers, I am trying to
"pratice" the install before doing it in the live setup.

I have read as much as I can on installing a new 2003 DC in a 2000
domain, and have tried to run adprep /forestprep on the DC, I get an
error:

"Adprep was unable to extend the schema.
[Status/Consequence]
There is a schema conflict with Exchange 2000. The schema is not
upgraded.
[User Action]
The schema conflict must be resolved before running adprep. Resolve
the schema c
onflict, allow the change to replicate between all replication
partners, and the
n run Adprep. For information on resolving the conflict, see Microsoft
Knowledge
Base article Q325379.
"

The article given isn't the most helpful, as it is more for upgrading
rather than a new install into an existing domain.

Thanks in advanced

None of those apply... I am not running Unix services 3.0, I am not
upgrading Exchange 2000 to 2003 and I am running 2003 R2 which
apparently doesn't mangle the attributes in the forest.....

I have searched before posting the original message, and they always
apply this problem to Upgrading Exchange along with the server, not
installing a new 2003 DC in a 2000 domain. I realise that the schema
and exchange attributes have to be altered, but nothing I have done
seems to work.

My guess is you are using disk1 of R2, use disk 2 of the two disk set for
the R2 o/s:

"To update the schema, on the schema master domain controller, insert Disc 2
and open the command prompt. Then, change to the Cmpnents\R2\Adprep folder
of Disc 2, and type: adprep.exe /forestprep"

I am not
upgrading Exchange 2000 to 2003 and I am running 2003 R2 which
apparently doesn't mangle the attributes in the forest.....


This article leads me to believe that Exchange 2000 is not compatible w/ Win
2k3.

See the number 3 in this link:
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/555040/en-us


Win 2k3 R2 disk 1 is the exact CD as Win 2k3 with SP 1 slipstreamed into it.
Win 2k3 R2 disk 2 is ONLY feature upgrades. Upgrades to DFS and Printing
functions etc..
If you aren't going to use the update features you don't even have to
install the second disk. You can just cancel the request for the second disk
and you will have a Win 2k3 SP 1 server. It's exactly the same as if you had
installed Win 2k3 from a Win 2k3 CD and downloaded SP1 and installed it.

I think R2 will mangle attributes. It's just Win 2k3 SP1 with a few feature
upgrades.

What do you mean by nope?

I thought you were trying to extend your schema?

The schema error your getting is referring to the fact that you have a 2000
Exchange server in a 2000 domain. If you extend the schema to accommodate
the schema for R2 or even 2003 you'll be left will mangled attributes in AD
resulting from the schema extension. So in some ways you can say that MS is
protecting you. The recommendation per Microsoft would be to first extend
the schema with the Exchange 2003 Forest/domain prep and then run the R2
Forest/domain prep/ Once this is done in this order you wont have the errors
your seeing. Once your at the point to migrated to Exchange 2003 your schema
will already have been prep'd.

Ensure netdiags and Dcdiags all successfully complete.

Here is a link to an article that will explain the mangled attributes.
