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.

2003, windows, 2000, dc, server

Here is my scenario.
i have a windows 2000 sp4 DC.
thats it. i do not have a secondary server.
on that DC i have dns, dhcp and print services.
I want to bring up a new 2003 server make it a DC and basically transfer over all of the dns, dhcp settings from the 2000dc (i am going to put all the printers on a different server completely, if anyone can help me do this without adding each printer again it would be greatly appreciated).
What do i need to do to bring up a 2003 dc, bring all that stuff over.. then get rid of the 2000 DC and bring up another 2003 DC so i have primary and a secondary DC.
I am not too familiar with the activer directory structure and I know there is some stuff I have to do with the global catalogs and master browsers.  

i think i have to bring up the 1st 2003 server as a secondary dc, until i promote it to a primary? but then how do i get rid of the 2000DC which is primary now?

Any detailed help would be greatly appreciated.
thank you
