R Rolf Barbakken Dec 3, 2006 #1 Or is it simply a matter of installing from the Windows Server 2003 CD?
D Dale Dec 3, 2006 #2 Option B - install from the Windows Server 2003 CD or download from Microsoft. Same as with XP. Dale
R Rolf Barbakken Dec 3, 2006 #3 Fair enough, except that when I try to start the tools I just get this message: "MMC could not create the snap-in" Bummer...

D Dale Dec 3, 2006 #4 Yikes. Suddenly I think I remember seeing something about running admin tools in a VPC with XP. Have you tried tools from the beta of Windows Vista Server? Dale

R Richard G. Harper Dec 3, 2006 #8 The current set of admin tools don't install or work under Vista. I would bet a new set are under development right now. I have heard (but haven't had time to test) that installing the old tools from the Server 2003 CD will work. -- Richard G. Harper [MVP Shell/User] (e-mail address removed) * NEW!
