Just a little confused here and looking for some help.

All Our DCs are 2003 Standard SP2 (we ever went to R2).

I want to extend the schema to take advantage of printer distribution via GPO and the new Wired/Wireless Vista GPO features.

My question: Can I just extend the schema using the R2 CD2 even though we have no R2 DCs? or do I need to first bring one of our 2003SP2 DCs up to R2 and then extentd the Schema? and If I have to go to R2, can I update SP2 to R2? or does SP2 need to come off first?

Thanks for any help.
 
Actually, as I think through this, I believe I need to extend the Schema even before attempting to move any DC to R2...so that probably answers my questions...

I can extend the schema in our AD structure as is with our DCs at 2003 Std SP2.

That's what I get for trying to figure this out too late at night.

Thanks for listening to me talk to myself :)... Of course, if I'm still wrong, feel free to set me straight.
