To install AD,if upgrading a PDC or BDC,DCPROMO will run automatically.Otherwise,you need to manually invoke DCPROMO.
DCPROMO is a wizard that promotes a Windows 2000 member server to a DC.
Click Run from the Start menu and type DCPROMO
Go to System Volume
Click next and then select Create new domain tree
Select Create a new domain tree and then click next
Select Create a new forest of domain trees and then click next
Enter DNS name
Click next for nest three screens
Select yes to direct DCPROMO to configure your DNS and click Next
Select Yes to weaken permissions if you have (RAS)
Click next to advance and then type to confirm the Administrators password.Click Next to begin promotion
When done with promotion, click finish
Click Restart
