There is no such thing as a "long form" of the command.

Could you explain your question?

well surely, "dcpromo" must have come from something..for
example,,the comand "VER" is the short form for "VERSION",,this
command displays the WINDOWS VERSION, also the command
"RMDIR",,which means remove a directory...I was wondering
whether you have anything on "dcpromo"

Think about it......you open the command prompt on a standalone server because you want to promote it from it's present 'standalone' status to a dc (domain controller).

What do you think 'dcpromo' stands for?
