Kraing,

I believe the tools you are looking for are in your Administrative Tools >> Active Directory User and Computers. Right-click on your domain and select Operations Master. This allows you to deligate specific operations to certain servers.

You may also want to take a look at suring up your server security here: http://www.microsoft.com/technet/mpsa/start.asp. You can never be too safe.

1. Install win2kserver on your server machines
2. Give them static IP addresses
3. Run DCPROMO from the run command on your first domain controller to install Active Directory.
4. once it is setup you can run dcpromo again and tell the dcpromo process to join an existing domain.

the dcpromo process will install DNS for you on your first domain controller if you don't have DNS setup anywhere else on the network
