Hello.
It recommended that the first DC that you upgrade is the Domain Naming
Master since it will try to create the default DNS applications partitions
doing this operation. If this fails you can do this later in the DNS
Manager.
The following computers must be among the first domain controllers that run
Windows Server 2003 in the forest in each domain: . The domain naming master
in the forest so that you can create default DNS program partitions.
. The primary domain controller of the forest root domain so that the
enterprise-wide security principals that Windows Server 2003's forestprep
adds become visible in the ACL editor.
. The primary domain controller in each non-root domain so that you
can create new domain-specific Windows 2003 security principals.

We have a forest that has a root and 3 child domains. All of the domain
controllers in one of the child domains have been upgraded from 2000 DCs
to
2003 DCs. The Domain Naming Master and the PDC Emulator at the root were
not
upgraded to 2003 DCs and there appears to be no effects what-so-ever.
What is the effect on the forest if the Domain Naming Master is not
upgraded
first? Can it be upgraded at a later time without issue? When it is
upgraded, will it just create and replicate the partions?
