I hace a cluster with 2 nodes with w2003 Enterprise, with a PDC W2k Server.

Couple of issues, you may get better support in the SBS newsgroup. With that
said, you can't do this. SBS installs as the only DC in the Forest. You
can't add another DC, only member servers and workstations. What you can do
is use the Active Directory Migration Tool (ADMT) version 2 from 2003 and
migrate the users and SIDs to the SBS domain. Then dcpromo the old PDC and
make it a member server of the SBS .local domain.

Cheers,

Rod

A little thing (sorry by my english)
when I use the Active Directory Migration Tool (ADMT)v2 the user that start
the cluster service is by example user/dom.local pass:user and the new user
user\domsbs.local pas:user, must i change the user name by user\domsbs.local??

I am afraid the MSCS dont star again¿?¿?¿

Thanks

Use ADMT to migrate the service account, it can do this nicely :) That way
you don't have to change the users name or password.
