Problems migrating Domain Controller and Active Directory from Server 2003 to Server 2008


today ran problems upgrading domain controller server 2003 server on network - server 2008.

on 2003 box ran:

adprep.exe /forestprep

adprep.exe /domainprep

adprep.exe /domainprep /gpprep

then on 2008 box ran: dcpromo

the whole process took couple of hours , seemed go ok, no errors.

dhcp server role not showing on 2008, added feature. doesn't seem way configure perhaps install faulty?

the active directory seems empty on 2008 , has red crosses beside .. "there no items show in view".

lan clients can still log onto network authenticating 2003 dc, have stopped ad , dhcp roles on 2008 box.

what wrong our process , here .. can assist please?

hi

 first should raise dfl server 2003,then can migrate server 2003 server 2008.already mentioned dfl&ffl needs least server 2003.

note: when raise dfl&ffl server 2003,old server 2000 dc become unfunctional,so if have server 2000 dc's should demote them before process.
