Re: Must I run ADPREP from the CD?

The whole CD or just the i386 directory? Either way I could zip up the entire
CD and robo it overnight down there. Thanks.

I didn't run it from the CD, but I did copy the CD to the local drive and
run it from there. Either that or mounted and ISO. Don't remember which,
but either way I didn't have the CD in the local host.

I've though about this. I can build a 2kdc here at my location and do
this
but I have four domain that need this and that would take a bit of time.

So none of the DCs are local with you? If they were, you could merely
transer the role.

Probably a silly question but can I copy adprep.exe from the cd to a
remote
infrastructure manager server and while remoting that server run
adprep
/domainprep? Or is the cd needed because adprep needs other files on
the
cd?

You could also transfer the Infrastructure Master to your current DC,
do the ADPrep /domainprep and later transfer it back if desired.

(In a single domain forest there is no issue with IM and GC being on the
same DC and in such single domain forests every DC should be a GC
anyway.)
