win2000 advanced server upgrade

[blove]

I am getting ready to upgrade a few of my servers. They are running win2000 advanced. A couple of them are load balanced just running IIS. The other two are in a sql clustered environment.

I will be upgrading to win2003 enterprise, is there any gotchas that I need to watch out for?

Depends, are you running AD on 2000 or 2003?

If 2000 you'll need to run adprep's forestprep and domainprep to update the schema, then you'll want to make sure that propogates before you do the install.

Run the compatibility checker before upgrading.

And google. a lot. there is a good deal of info out there, and in here using Search. I don't mean to be prickly, Just there is loads of great info here, which I have used time and time agian.
