read all the kb's on the subject am at a loss. The new SBS 2003 simply won't
advertise as the GC. Failed dcdiag tests as follows, TIA:

I am trying to add a new server 2003 to a current domain. I have followed
instructions in the document 884453, and my new server is now a Global
catalog and has replicated. There are no automatically added domain
controllers in the replication list, under NTDS settings, is that right?
If this is SBS, you don't add it to domains. If it isn't, the people
here won't be able to help, you'll have more luck on a straight Server
2003 group.
