need steps to add a new 2003 R2 domain controller to a network that has 2000 domain controller running Exchange 2000

Asked by BFanguy in Windows 2000 Server, Exchange Email Server

Tags: Microsoft, Exchange, 2000, add 2003 R3 Domain Controller to 2000 domain network

I need the steps to add a new 2003 R2 Server as a domain controller (so i can move to exchange 2007) on a network that has 2 - 2000 domain controllers one of which is also running exchange 2000.

tried addprep \forestprep on the main domain controller from the 2nd cd for 2003 R2 and it failed :
C:\ADPREP>ADPREP /FORESTPREP
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 poten
tial domain controller corruption.
For more information about preparing your forest and domain see KB article Q3311
61 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 ENT
ER to quit.
C
Adprep was unable to extend the schema.
[Status/Consequence]
There is a schema conflict with Exchange 2000. The schema is not upgraded.
[User Action]
The schema conflict must be resolved before running adprep. Resolve the schema c
onflict, allow the change to replicate between all replication partners, and the
n run Adprep. For information on resolving the conflict, see Microsoft Knowledge
 Base article Q325379.

Need to know what to do with exchange so I can run addprep on the boxes.
