I had to rebuild a Windows 2003 DC and I'm getting ready to put it back in place. &nbsp;The setup is a very small office of 4PC's all running XP Pro.<br />
<br />
What do i need to do when I drop the server back in? &nbsp;Should I remove and rejoin clients from/to the domain? &nbsp;The profiles are all local.<br />
<br />
Any tips on what to look out for?<br />
<br />
Thanks!

Rebuilt 2003 DC

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).
