Good reference book?

[TheGrandHooHa]

Sorry if this has been answered in another thread, but a keyword search didn't turn up much.

I am going to be designing a small domain (~25 computers, 2 servers) and plan on using Active Directory. What is the best reference book I can buy for this? I have some experience with usage of an AD system after it is set up, but no experience actually setting it up. I'm looking for a book that goes over some stuff step-by-step, but also a book that you can just look up a specific problem when Tek-Tips is unavailable. Any book (or combination of books, really) that fit this description? I plan on using Windows 2003 Server, but Win2k books would probably be fairly applicable too, so throw them in if necessary.

Thanks, and again ,sorry if this has been done before.

I really like Mark Minasi's "Mastering Windows 200x" series by Sybex Press. The new one is good, albeit large, but he covers it all step-by-step. It also comes with the entire book on CD, which is nice for a laptop, etc.
