Cheapest
way and maybe second fastest would be to install 2000 and then use Dcpromo
to demote from Domain Controller to member server. Absolute fastest way might be to use
U-Promote (third party utility), but Microsoft says they will discontinue
support on a NT server that has been “Upromoted” (Oh no, what will I do without
Microsoft Support??? <takes
tongue out of cheek>)

Restore Question
Has anyone
ever tried to restore a machine back to it original state, except, BIG
exception, without making it a BDC? I am want to upgrade and old
imaging system, that doesn't have support...long story, but I don't want
this machine to be a DC anymore. I want to move to a Windows 2000
Network and I know I can do a mixed mode, but if I could do this, my job
would be much easier. Weird question I know....but has anyone ever
tried this??
Thanks,
Dan
