Setting Up Your First Domain Controller With Windows Server 2008

I found this really good web site and all the credits goes to ElMajdal. This is something that I'll be looking to perform in next few months . Our Domain functional level is Window 2000 native but since I decommissioned the last domain controller (Windows 2000), which was also running MS Exchange 2000 on it. Now that we upgraded our mail server to Microsoft Exchange 2007 CCR and there are no Windows 2000 domain controllers.

I'll be migrating from Windows 2003 to Windows Server 2008 and transfering the FSMO roles to Windows Server 2008.

I found ElMajdal's website very informative and posted the details on my blog for my future references:
