    Default Re: windows 2003 domain controller

    Not as a domain controller, no. Before installing 2003 Active Directory in
    a 2000 domain, you need to extend AD & the AD schema to create the
    new/updated information required by 2003 Active Directory.

    Windows 2003 -can- function as a member server within a 2000 AD domain
    without changing the state of your 2000 AD installation, simply by adding it
    to the domain without running dcpromo.
