Admin Pack

Where do I find what used to be called the "Admin Pack" in Windows 2000 for

XP? I'm referring to utilities that allow you to manage an Active Directory

domain, DNS, etc., from a XP Professional system. In Windows 2000

Professional, those utilities were located in an installation called

ADMINPAK.MSI located on the CD. I found what I thought was that toolset on

the XP CD, but it turned out to be a set of command-line utilities the

purpose of which I am unsure.

"The Administration Tools Pack allows administrators to install the Windows

Server 2003 management tools onto a computer running Windows XP Professional

or a Windows Server 2003 family operating system to perform remote server

management functions. This is the final version (build 5.2.3790.1830) of the

adminpak.msi file. You must uninstall all previous versions of the

Administration Tools Pack before installing this version."
