The Solution Rating System

With so many solutions, how can you tell which solutions are most likely to help you and which ones are not? To provide you with a tool to use, we rate our solutions based on various elements that most accurately determine if a solution is a quality solution. To explain what factors affect the solution rating, here are the elements we take into consideration when formulating our solution rating.

  • The Grade of the Solution
  • The Zone Rank of the Expert Providing the Solution
  • The Number of Author and Expert Comments
  • The Number of Experts Contributing
  • The Feedback of the Community

Your Input Matters
Because of the way the system is set up, the most important variable in this equation is you. As a member of Experts Exchange, you are able to cast your vote on the quality of the solutions in regard to how complete, accurate, helpful and easy to understand each solution is. When you provide your feedback, each rating is adjusted accordingly. So, if you see a solution that has a poor rating that you think is a good solution, let us know by rating it. As you do, the rating will be adjusted and will become more accurate for other members of our site.

If you have any suggestions that you would like to make for our rating system, please ask a question in the Suggestions Zone of Community Support.

Thank you!

I am pulling my hair out over this one.  

I am trying to add a 2003 server to a 2000 domain.

adprep /forestprep ran with no errors

adprep /domainprep runs with the following error:

Adprep copied file d:\i386\schema.ini from installation point to local machine under directory C:\WINNT.

This is my setup:
w2k server is only dc in the domain and has exchange 2000
ran inetorgpersonfix script (after forestprep)
ran adprep /forestprep - no errors
ran adprep /domainprep - error is above
checked all system policy permissions:  domain admins, enterpriseadmins, administrators have full control over AD policies etc.
checked registry:  schema update is set to 1
sysvol is set to c:\winnt\sysvol\sysvol

I just cannot get the brand new 2003 server to run dcpromo without it telling me I have to run adprep /domainprep.

Any help would be much appreciated.

Thanks for your time
