Correct. I assume you are aware you should always transfer if at all
possible vs seize?

Subject: Seizing roles in a parent/child domain

During my testing in a virtual parent/child domain structure
(Win2000), I have seized all 5 FSMO roles on my parent DC. All went
well.

On the child DC, I do *not* seize all roles, because 3 of them are
forest-wide, right? Domain naming (owner) and Schema Master are
forest-wide, and so should *not* be seized on a child DC. The others -
PDC, RID, Operations - can all be seized, since they are domain
specific, correct?
