I logged into my Windows 2003 Standard 32bit Server &quot;domain controller&quot; as administrator on the DOMAIN (not local PC), tried to raise the FOREST FUNCTIONAL LEVEL from 2000 to 2003 so it matches the server's DOMAIN FUNCTIONAL LEVEL, and got a &quot;you do not have sufficient privilege to raise the forest functional level&quot; error.<br />

Anyone have possible solutions ?

Windows Server 2003 was based on Windows XP and was released in four editions: Web, Standard, Enterprise and Datacenter. It also had derivative versions for clusters, storage and Microsoft’s Small Business Server. Important upgrades included integrating Internet Information Services (IIS), improvements to Active Directory (AD) and Group Policy (GP), and the migration to Automated System Recovery (ASR).

Active Directory (AD) is a Microsoft brand for identity-related capabilities. In the on-premises world, Windows Server AD provides a set of identity capabilities and services, and is hugely popular (88% of Fortune 1000 and 95% of enterprises use AD). This topic includes all things Active Directory including DNS, Group Policy, DFS, troubleshooting, ADFS, and all other topics under the Microsoft AD and identity umbrella.

Active Directory

The Microsoft Server topic includes all of the legacy versions of the operating system, including the Windows NT 3.1, NT 3.5, NT 4.0 and Windows 2000 and Windows Home Server versions.
