I cloned Windows 2000 Advance Server with Exchange 2000
and Active directory from a 36Gb Scsi Drive to 50GB Scsi
Drive. Use Norton 2003 Ghost for cloning.

After cloning I boot th enew drive it boots fine but
before the login window I get error saying "Directory
Services could not start because of following error
0xc000000f. Please click Ok to shutdown this system and
reboot into directory services restore mode, check the
event log for more information"

For your knowledge I did not get any error while
cloning.Norton said they cannot help.

Please help.
 
Error 0x0000000f according to winerror.h means Invalid drive. Start your
server in DSRM, run ntdsutil -->files and check file location with info
command. Next check that with actual status on your drive.
