Cheers, that has worked nicely. I was a bit surprised still that
you can't drive the DCPromo wizard by using settings in the [DCPromo] section of
the answer file..... From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Brian Desmond Sent: Saturday, July 30, 2005 7:45 AM To: [email protected] Subject: RE: [ActiveDir] DCPromo Answer file....no DNS. You
have DNS installed? You need to use the sysoc stuff (look it up in the ref.chm
in deploy.cab) to install DNS first… From:

All, I
have set up a Win2K domain (single DC, SP3) and have joined a Win2K3 member
server. I have promoted the W2K3 Member server using a dcpromo answer
file, but cannot seem to force it to install DNS. Any
ideas ?? Brad PS:
