I'm replacing a Windows 2000 Domain Controller with a Windows 2008 Domain Controller. This is a brand new box. Any advice on how to do this easily and quickly?
From a very basic level, Backup first, install a new windows 2008 server and join it to the existing domain. Prep the forest and Domain, promote the 2008 box, check DNS/DHCP/etc, transfer FSMO roles, remove old 2000 DC, raise functional level of your domain.
Those are the basic steps and depending on the complexity of your network (DFS/Exchange/Sites/subdomains/Policy Settings/etc) may be much more involved. Unless you are confident you know what you are doing, I'd advise working with a consulting group to take a look and provide advice.
Also Hi EP and people. I found this place again while looking through a oooollllllldddd backup. I have filled over 10TB and was looking at my collection of antiques. Any bids on the 500Mhz Win 95 fix?
