Hello,
I have a windows 2003 single forest, single domain.
I am trying to promote a 2008r2 64bit member server to a DC.
I have 2 x 2003svr DC's (1 of which has all the FSMO roles)
I have run ADPREP / ForestPrep, Domain Prep, ROC Prep, GP Prep on the FSMO DC, all succeeded.
Scheme version is 44. So the prep has worked.
When I try to run DCPROMO on the 2008 member server it displays...
"To install a domain controller into this active directory forest, you must first prepare the forest using 'adprep /forestprep'"
I tried to run the adpreps again on the 2003 DC but they all return as "already completed'.
I am really confused, this one got me stumped, any advice or help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks
