hi,

before introducing first 2008 dc 2003 domain, need extend schema or preparing forest , domain running adprep command. in windows server 2008 r2 disk, adprep available in 32-bit version (adprep32) , 64-bit version (adprep). 64-bit version runs default. if existing dc 32 bit use adprep 32.

adprep /forestprep
-must run on schema operations master forest.
-once entire forest

adprep /domainprep
-must run on infrastructure operations master domain.
-once in each domain plan install additional domain controller runs later version of windows server latest version running in domain.

adprep /domainprep /gpprep
