Changing Server from Workgroup to Domain

[jballum]

I have a small network, 2000 Server and one client workstation (with one hub between them).

Currently this small enviroment is set up as being part of a WorkGroup. I want to change it to be on it's own domain.

How hard is it to put the existing environment onto it's own domain? What steps will need to be done on the server?

Thanx BigTime!

run dcpromo

1andonly is correct. Go to start, run, dcpromo. This will start off the promotion to take you from a stand alone server to a domain controller. Figure out a good name in advance. Is this production server or test server? Glen A. Johnson
