I am trying to find info re how to create fsmo role
failovers for our w2k ads single domain forest. I was
unable to find anything on technet. Anyone have a Q# or

There is a good chapter in the Resource kit on managing FSMO roles. It can
be found at

Basically you dont create FSMO failovers except to
identify servers and procedures to follow in if the FSMO
servers die. There is no automatic failover feature. You
must manually transfer or seize the roles.
