Brandon,
This
sounds to be a problem with MMC, which does have a few problems (putting it
mildly). If you run MMC /A from Start->Run and then add the snap-in
for AD Sites and Services, (provided you've added the AdminPak for SP3 - you
HAVE applied the AdminPak for SP3, right? This also assumes you're not
doing this directly from the DC, which means you don't have to install the
AdminPak) as a piece within a new MMC console.
Also, just to make sure there is no misunderstanding - servers do not
magically appear in sites when a site is created. You must create the
site, associate subnets and protocols / transports with the site, then move a
DC to that site.
As
to the issues that you're having with MMC - yes - I've seen it
often.

All,
I am trying to add a new site
within AD and every time I add a new site with in AD Sites and Services the
MMC window completely closes. I open it back up and the site is created, but
the server container underneath it is not created. This happens on several
DC's within in AD. When I try and create anything with in AD Sites and
Services the MMC window closes. I have rebooted and reloaded SP3 and I am
still having the same problem. Has anyone else run into this problem and if
so how did you fix it?
Thanks for Your
Help,
Brandon
