I am getting the following log file when attempting to use
the "adprep /forestprep" command. At the end it says look
in the "Ldif.err log file" for information but there is
no "Ldif.err log file" just the following log. I have one
DC in one forest, just a small home network.

ADPREP WARNING:

Before running adprep, all Windows 2000 domain controllers
in the forest should be upgraded to Windows 2000 Service
Pack 1 (SP1) with QFE 265089, or to Windows 2000 SP2 (or
later).

QFE 265089 (included in Windows 2000 SP2 and later) is
required to prevent potential domain controller
corruption.

For more information about preparing your forest and
domain see KB article Q331161 at
http://support.microsoft.com.

[User Action]

If ALL your existing Windows 2000 domain controllers meet
this requirement, type C and then press ENTER to continue.
Otherwise, type any other key and press ENTER to quit.

Adprep was about to call the following LDAP API.
ldap_search_s(). The base entry to start the search is
CN=UID,CN=Schema,CN=Configuration,DC=SCHazlett,DC=com.

LDAP API ldap_search_s() finished, return code is 0x20

Adprep successfully determined whether Microsoft Windows
Services for UNIX (SFU) is installed or not. If adprep
detected SFU, adprep also verified that Microsoft hotfix
Q293783 for SFU has been applied.

Adprep was unable to upgrade the schema on the schema
master.

[Status/Consequence]

The schema will not be restored to its original state.

[User Action]

Check the Ldif.err log file in the C:\WINNT\system32
\debug\adprep\logs\20040507144934 directory for detailed
information.

Adprep was unable to update forest-wide information.

[Status/Consequence]

Adprep requires access to existing forest-wide information
from the schema master in order to complete this operation.

[User Action]

Check the log file, Adprep.log, in the C:\WINNT\system32
\debug\adprep\logs\20040507144934 directory for more
information.
