Re: 2003 CA in 2000 Domain

Yeah, thanks I have reviewed that. That is the method I used, but am now
getting error messages from certificate services. I am thinking its because
my domain is running at the 2000 level and the Certificate authority is
2003. Will running adprep solve this issue?

We are planning on moving our CA server to Windows 2003. We currently
have
a Windows 2000 based domain.
I have gone ahead and done this in a test environment, and am getting
a
bunch of error messages in event veiewer on the new 2003 CA.
My understanding is that I need to run adprep, and forest prep on our
2000 domain controller, to bring it up to the 2003 level. Is this
correct? Will this harm anything, if we don't actually upgrade our
domain controllers to windows 2003?
