This was the correct answer, running it all now. The forestprep's are in fact different (maybe they should have named them differently to avoid this kind of confusion)
Thanks for the help!!!

You'll need to run forestprep for AD prior to installing a 2003 DC. I think that's what you're asking, but correct me if I'm wrong.

The schema configuration is valid for the whole forest.

This will be the first of a staged migration to a full windows 2003 domain. Additionally, I have an Exchange 2003 server running on an windows 2000 server. I have already run forestprep when I installed E2k3. Do I need to run it again before adding a Win 2k3 domain controller or is the domain already set?
