RE: [ActiveDir] ADPrep Version Questions
Ok. Promise. Last adprep question: Does adprep need to be run from an i386 directory or can it be run on its own? Does it have dependant files within i386 or is it self-contained? Thanks.

RE: [ActiveDir] ADPrep Version Questions
It's a common source of confusion.
Ask a user if version 1.4.4 is newer or older than 1.4.3.4
:)
Some say "344 therefore the latter is newer" some say
"43 therefore the former is newer"
neil
PS The purist in me would say that without a leading 0, the
196 below looks like 1 thousand 9 hundred and 60 and 19601830. it's all
about justification, when dealing with the decimal notation

Questions
Hi-
I am
preparing to upgrade a W2k domain to W2k3. I want to use the latest version of
ADPrep. I have found the following info and am
confused:
For
ADPrep on the following -
From
Windows Server 2003 CD:
5.2.3790.0
July 22, 2004, 9:07:08 AM
from
WindowsServer2003-KB889101-SP1-x86-ENU.exe:
5.2.3790.1830
November 07, 2005, 5:48:59 PM
listed
in MSKB / Hotfix 324392
5.2.3790.196
July 23, 2004, 9:04
Am I
reading that correctly: the one from SP1 is a lower version and later date than
the one in the hotfix? Which one is the latest?
Thanks.

RE: [ActiveDir] ADPrep Version Questions
Oh just what I need: more of those number-things to confuse me ;-) But seriously folks, would you recommend using this R2 version for the migration from W2k to W2k3? Yes, we plan to implement R2 on some machines in the domain. -- nme From: Jeremy Olson [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Wednesday, January 18, 2006 8:44 AM To: ActiveDir@mail.activedir.org Subject: Re: [ActiveDir] ADPrep Version Questions The versionj of adprep.exe that is included with R2. is 5.2.3790.2075 Jeremy On 1/17/06, Noah Eiger [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Hi- I am preparing to upgrade a W2k domain to W2k3.

RE: [ActiveDir] ADPrep Version Questions
LOL. It isn't a decimal number though... It is a series of variable length decimal numbers separated by the period character... Sort of like an OID 1.2.840.113556.1.4.7000.102.7038 Versioning is a lost art I think though. I am big on xx.yy.zz. xx.=major, yy=minor, zz=really minor, =build. To me... major rev changes for big changes, massive updates or rewrites or drammatic functional changes.minor is added features, bug fixes. really minor is output string changes or remarks in the code being changed, things that don't change thecode flow and don't require any serious testing (I rarely update this one). And build of course ishow many times the bin has been compiled. G:\filever f:\dev\cpp\adfind\adfind.exe--a-- W32i APP ENU 1.29.0.785 shp 950,784 12-22-2005 adfind.exe The current release version ofadfind for instance has been compiled 785 times. Well actually that is incorrect, it has compiled 785 times since V01.08.00. There was a little bug in the routine I had been using to increment the counter and it was resetting on every new minor version rev. If I follow the average I am probably off by 250-300 compile build numbers but I expect it is less than that because as the complexity grew in versions 15 the number of compiles between releases went up due to testing and bug hunting.
