1) Install DNS server(s) on your Windows 2000 machine(s)
2) Create and configure secondary DNS zones for appropriate dns domains on
these DNS servers. Configure primary servers for these zones to allow
replication
3) Once the zone transfer was successful, reconfigure DNS servers hosting
the transferred zones so DNS server on W2k machine would be primary server
(i.e. convert the zones to primary zones). Reconfigure other DNS servers to
be secondary servers for these zones.
4) Once other DNS servers no longer needed, remove the secondary zones for
appropriate dns domains from them.

I have a interesting project ahead. Our current environment runs DNS on Metal IP. (Checkpoint) product). Anyway with our active directory structure growing and its reliance on DNS we decided it be better to go ahead and move the AD zones over to windows 2000. So our parent domain will remain on the existing dns platform. Our subdomains for 2k will move to windows 2000. This seemed simple enough until looking at it further I see that the two 2k domains which are parent and child domains of each other were configured as multiple zones on the existing platform. So here is what I have. Our parent domain zz.com will remain on the existing domain. Our two 2k domains are yy.zz.com and xx.yy.zz.com. I really wanted two 2k servers to be authoritive for yy.zz.com domain and xx.yy.zz.com domain in a single zone but since they are separate zones in the existing infrastructure they migrate over as seperate zones. I could try and modify the zone files manually or my other option seems to be start from scratch on windows 2000 after delegating authority for yy.zz.com and recreating the windows 2k recoreds by netdiag /fix. This will fix the SRV records but my dynamic host records will have to re regester. I have tried to test it out in our lab and I get about half the workstations regestering. I tried to ipconfig /regesterdns but that does not seem to do the trick. Any Ideal would be helpful. I know this is long and confusing Im sure.
