Re: migrating from windows 2000 advanced server to windows 2003 enterprise server

After that I entered the (or selected from browse) full domain name
and I receive the "An AD domain controller xxx.xxx could not be
contacted. Ensure DNS name typed correctly" error and I could not go
any further step.
What can be cause this problem?
It appears that you don't have a lot of AD experience and I would suggest
getting a consultant to do this. You have to make decisions that may take a
format and reinstall to recover from. If you choose to do this I would
suggest stopping now, taking a couple of weeks and go to the Microsoft site
and read up on what you need to do. Search the knowledge base for "upgrade
domain" "adding a DC to an existing domain" "An AD domain controller xxx.xxx
could not be
contacted. Ensure DNS name typed correctly"
This should be the first place you get you info from to do this, *then* if
you get stuck, search for the error message. If you can't find it or don't
understand it then post here.

Hi,
Before we go any further, I would like to explain the newsgroup service.
The public newsgroup is provided for specific break/fix based issues and
simple how to question.
Our initial reply intended to assist you to get started with domain and
file migration. If you need more detailed information, we suggest
contacting our Advisory server, which are more appropriate to provide you
the detailed migration steps specific to your environment.
For more info about Advisory Services , you can refer
to:http://support.microsoft.com/gp/advisoryservice
Thank for your understanding.
Here, I am also glad to provide my suggestion about the error message
"adprep is not recognized as ... command" you encountered. To correctly
run
ADPREP command, please perform the following steps:
<1>
1. Log on to the console of the schema operations master with an
account
that is a member of the Schema Admins security group.
2. Run adprep on the schema operations master. To do so, click
Start, click
Run, type cmd, and then click OK. On the schema operations master, type
the
following command
X:\I386\adprep /forestprep
where X:\I386\ is the path of the Windows Server 2003 installation media.
This command runs the forest-wide schema upgrade.
Note Events with event ID 1153 that are logged in the Directory Service
event log, such as the sample that follows, can be ignored:
Event Type : Error
Event Source : NTDS General
Event Category: Internal Processing
Event ID : 1153
Date: MM/DD/YYYY
Time: HH:MM:SS AM|PM
User : Everyone Computer : <some DC>
Description: Class identifier 655562 (class name
msWMI-MergeablePolicyTemplate) has an invalid superclass 655560.
Inheritance ignored.
If adprep /forestprep does not run, verify the following items:
The fully qualified path for Adprep.exe located in the \I386 folder of
the
installation media was specified when adprep ran. To do so, type the
following command:
x:\i386\adprep /forestprep
where x is the drive that hosts the installation media.
If adprep still does not work, view the Adprep.log file in the
%systemroot%\System32\Debug\Adprep\Logs\Latest_log folder.
2) Upgrading the domain with the adprep /domainprep command
Run adprep /domainprep after the /forestprep changes fully replicate to
the
infrastructure master domain controller in each domain that will host
Windows Server 2003 domain controllers. To do so, follow these steps:
1. Identify the infrastructure master domain controller in the
domain you
are upgrading, and then log on with an account that is a member of the
Domain Admins security group in the domain you are upgrading.
Note: The enterprise administrator may not be a member of the Domain
Admins
security group in child domains of the forest.
2.
Run adprep /domainprep on the Infrastructure master. To do so, click
Start,
click Run, type cmd, and then on the Infrastructure master type the
following command:
X:\I386\adprep /domainprep
where X:\I386\ is the path of the Windows Server 2003 installation media.
This command runs domain-wide changes in the target domain.
Note: The adprep /domainprep command modifies files permissions in the
Sysvol share. These modifications cause a full synchronization of files
in
that directory tree.
I hope this helps. Have a good day!

Hi Morgan;
Thank you for your explanation about adprep /forestprep /domeinprep
after finishing first and second step and run the dcpromo on the
destination server , active directory installation wizard came and I
selected the additional domain controller for an existing domain,
enter the administrator user name , the password and the source
domain name.
After that I entered the (or selected from browse) full domain name
and I receive the "An AD domain controller xxx.xxx could not be
contacted. Ensure DNS name typed correctly" error and I could not go
any further step.
What can be cause this problem?
Again thanks for your help.
