2003 DC - Adding DNS - file not found "dnsetw.mof"

I'm installing DNS server on a Win2003 domain controller (new server install in existing domain).  The install prompts me to locate the file "dnsetw.mof".  It can't be found on the 2003 CD, or anywhere in the OS.

I've searched online w/no luck.

Help.

Thanks, Jay - that did it.  For others:  The file is contained in 2003 SP1, does not appear to be on the OEM pre-SP1 cd.
I found it in the Service Pack Files (C:\WINDOWS\ServicePackFiles\i386).


Thanks Again!
well done mate :)

thanks

for a newb like me you can extract the files out of sp2 or sp1 exe files by simply typing the below in your RUN window with the -x switch
D:\sp2\WindowsXP-KB835935-SP2-ENU.exe -x    

Just make sure you locate your sp2 or sp1 executable first then extract into a directory with the steps above.
