What is the best way to implement WIndows 2003 Domain Controllers into an existing Windows 2000 Domain environment? I currently have two WIndows 2000 DC's in my domain, and I have two new Windows 2003 servers that I want to promote to DC's and implement them into my existing network. I will eventually remove/demote the two Windows 2000 DC's; however, for the time being I plan on running the current Windows 2000 DC's along with the new Windows 2003 DC's. Is Forest Prep all that I need to run on the Windows 2000 DC's using the Windows 2003 Installation disk? ALso, I have Exchange 2000 running on one of my Windows 2000 DC's, will running Forest Prep cause any issues with Exhcnge?
