Now,what can you do in the meantime? I can throw you a beta of the Adminpak for .NET server that will install and control *most* items of a Win2K network (DNS, WINS, DHCP, etc), however it will NOT control AD objects yet. I expect a fix soon on this, so if it's not a major issue I would just use Terminal Services on one of my DCs until the full version of the tools come out.
