Windows 2003 server tools

[hellboy101]

Hello-

What Windows tools would I need to download on to my client pc in order to be able to view Active Directory -Users and Computers, Sites and Services and Domain Trust objects?

I could RDP to the server and just log on to the box in order to do this but there must be a way (as long as you have the proper privileges) to have AD tools implemented on a Windows 2000 pro or xp client.

Any ideas? I'll appreciate any info!

Copy the AdminPak.MSI file from the Server's Windows folder to your local computer, then double-click on it. That will install the management tools (I believe this only works on XP).

Keep in mind that the tools on the CD are outdated as soon as you install SPs on the server itself.

Nothing - everything is included. Why not post the commands so we can help you determine why its not working.
