1. We got your first post. Today, being the last day of the year, either we
are not working, or busy. (Of course, Steve M is a different story.) I have
been on the phone for the last 2 hours with a client. This is not a paid
response list; we are volunteering our time to help.
2. Foul language is not tolerated on an open public forum. Clean up your
manners.
3. Why are you returning the server?
4. Since you are using SBS, you can not add another DC to the domain. You
can add member servers, but not another DC.
5. Go to Microsoft's SBS web site. There is a tool there I believe to
migrate users from SBS to a Standard/Advanced server running as a DC.

i have this Problem and i want your Advice Please :-
============================================================================
======
i have one server from Dell, its installed on it Small Business server 2000
.
this server is Domain Controller and also has ISA Server 2000 , and
Exchange 2000 on it .
i have here 25 users connect to this server and 8 of them are under
workgroup and the rest under My Domain. ( 17 users ).
The Original CD For Small Business Server2000 is not with us at all and also
the Exchange 2000 CD's and ISA Server CD.
we are going to Return this Server Back to the Company.
so i want to have my users still connected to the network and able to send &
Receive Messages from the E-mail after i take out this server from the
Network.
if i take it out the old server, my users will be anuable to browsing
Internet & Send & Receive E-mails.
and if i installed another New one with new domain , they will lose the
Profile settings for them .
the main thing that , i do not want to Formate every PC here in my network
and create another domain and join all of the users to the new domain
because they will lose the Profile settings and also some of them are out
side country and they will not comeback before 3 monthes.
=====================================================================
for that , i am thinking of something, instead of Formate the new Server and
put another O.S which is Advanced server 2000 SP4, i am thinking of
something .
what is that :-
while the old server is still connected on the Network i will do the
following :-
1-Bring new Server.
2-install on it Advanced server 2000 SP4.
3-join this Server to the Domain.
4-Run DCPROMO on it .
5-Make another Domain Controller in the same domain.
6-Go to the First Doamin Controller and open Active Directory users and
computer .
7-Choose connect to the First Domain Controoler.
8-Change the Operation Master of the first DC to be on the Seconde D.C.
( RID Master , PDC , DNM ).
9- go to Active directory Sites and services .
10-under the default first site name choose the seconde server ( Seconde
Domain Controoler and Make him is Global Catalog ) .
i mean take the global catalog from the old server to be on the seconde
server .
11-Shutdown the First server.
12-disconnect it from the Network & Return Back to the Comapny.
13- formate the old one and Install on it Advanced server 2000 SP4 and make
the same steps to reurn it back to the first domain Controoler .
======================================================================
my question is , do you think there will be conflict with me because i have
Small Business server 2000 and i will use Advanced server 2000 SP4 .
if there is conflict, can you Recommennd solution for my situation ,,
because i weant to take out this Fucking Small Business server 2000 and work
on the original Advanced server 2000. and without deleting or creatre
another Profile for the users on my network, it will be very defecult for
them to do that or accept it .
Please Advice me for Solution .
Best Regards,
Medo
