Question: You are the administrator of a network that consists of a single Windows NT 4.0 domain. The network contains five Windows NT Server domain controllers and 1,000 Windows NT Workstation client computers. You want to install Windows 2000 Server on a new computer. You want the new computer to act as a domain controller in the existing domain. What should you do?

Options

A : On the new computer, install Windows NT Server 4.0 and designate the computer as a BDC in the existing domain. Promote the computer to the PDC of the domain. Upgrade the computer to Windows 2000 Server

B : On the new computer, install Windows NT Server 4.0 and designate the computer as a PDC in a new domain that has the same NetBIOS name as the existing Windows NT domain. Upgrade the computer to Windows 2000 Server. Use Active Directory Sites and Services to force synchronization of the domain controllers

C : Shut down the PDC of the existing Windows NT domain from the network. On the new computer, install Windows 2000 Server, and then run the Active Directory Installation wizard to install Active Directory, specifying the same NetBIOS name for the Windows2000 domain as the existing Windows NT domain

D : Shut down the PDC of the existing Windows NT domain from the network. On the new computer, install Windows 2000 Server, and then run the Active Directory Installation wizard to install Active Directory as a replica in the existing Windows NT domain. Promote the new computer to the PDC of the domain. Restart the Windows NT PDC on the network and demote it to a BDC
