My ultimate goal is to remove the current DC to a member server. I want to make another member server the DC of the domain. I would also like to have the ability to add DC's whenever i want to. Right now i can not do that. AS far as when i run dcpromo on the member server i have to put the...

Zoey i agree on there has to be a simplier way than reding the whole domain. Here are the answers to your ?'s these all apply to the server I want to promote. I would again first check your DNS settings on the server you are having problems with. Primary DNS is the IP of the PDC/DNS server...

what did you have to change in your DNS? My win2k clients are real slow logging on to the network.

Did you ever find a solution?
