What is the proper way to connect an additional Win2k3 machine to my
SBS2003
server?

On my Win2k3 server I went to “System Properties”, “Computer
name” tab and
joined the SBS domain.

That's all that's required.

That worked fine, but isn’t AD objects suppose to be
replicated as well?...for example, I can’t see “Active Directory
Users &
computers” icon in my Administrator Tools Folder.

No. You won't have the AD management tools on the member server. They're only installed on DCs. You can add them by installing the Admin Tools with adminpak.msi.
