I've had a couple of crashes administering Win2k DNS servers through this tool as well. Of course, it is from a beta OS, so it's not too unexpected.

There are a few foibles though. The DHCP snapin shows Win2k DHCP servers as inactive when they are active. If you choose Activate, it will deactivate them, but the snapin will show them as activated. WINS does not always return correct data. Exchange 2k is not supported, although if you install Win2k first with admin tools and Exchange System Manager, then upgrade to XP Pro, then install the .NET adminpak, it will work. Watch with GPOs, XP can slip a few extras in there that are specific to XP.
