All of the issues I have heard of around R2 ForestPrep have been around the mangling of the SFU attributes that has been discussed here.
 
I am not sure why MSFT is acting surprised about it. Aric Bernard (from the list here) encountered it and told them about it in the beta groups a long long time ago.

You need to run forestprep from the R2 CD on your schema master.

I have 4 DC's that are Win2003 SP1 and 1 DC that is still Win2000 SP4.  I'd like to add a new DC that is Win2003 R2.  Is there anything special I need to do ( i.e. forestprep/domainprep) or can I join it just like another Win2003 SP1 DC?

 

Thanks,
