yes, it doesn't have child objects, but it's not empty - it has some
attributes determining it's status => the revision attribute is stamped
when all tasks have been completed successfully.  What's this set to in
your environment

you'll get more details as to what was performed by checking the
Operations container at the same level as the Windows2003update
container => this should contain an entry for every operations which was
performed during the upgrade (which are 37 for the forestprep and 50 for
the domain prep)

and the fact that the objects exist confirms that ADPREP /forestprep and
/domainprep was executed in the respective forest/domain (and that the
update replicated to other DCs).

Thanks
