Addition of a second domain controller is a simple tast if the second
domain controller to be added is a member of the same tree. The addition
of a second DC can be accomplished by issuing the 'dcpromo' command
after the successful installation of the windows 2003 server. After
issuing the command, follow the instructions from there on to add a DC
to your already existing structure.
