Hello!

I was wondering if I can add a Win2K BDC in an AD/DC. What are the steps to creating that?

Thanks!

There is no PDC/BDC relationship (as it exists in NT4) in Active Directory. The first DC created in any AD domain has some additional roles assigned to it, but other than that, all DCs are essentially co-equal.

A DC can be created simply by running dcpromo on a Win2K Server. Runing dcpromo installs ACtive Directory. Installing AD automatically creates a Domain Controller.

Hope this helps.
