There are quite a few ways to tell. Here are a few I found.
The correct version of the ADPrep.exe tool for Windows Server 2003 R2 is 5.2.3790.2075.
You can verify the operating system support level of the schema by looking at the value of the Schema Version registry subkey on a domain controller. You can find this subkey in the following location:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\CurrentControlSet\Services\NTDS\Parameters
You can also verify the operating system support level of the schema by using the Adsiedit.exe utility or the Ldp.exe utility to view the objectVersion attribute in the properties of the cn=schema,cn=configuration,dc=<domain> partition. The value of the Schema Version registry subkey and the objectVersion attribute are in decimal.
Schema Version ObjectVersion values and corresponding operating system support level
- 13=Microsoft Windows 2000
- 30=Original release version of Microsoft Windows Server 2003 and Microsoft Windows Server 2003 Service Pack 1 (SP1)
- 31=Microsoft Windows Server 2003 R2
- 44=Windows 2008

adfind -sc schver. It gets objectVersion code and translates into Win2003 version.

My old computer died on my last week. I’ve been looking for a new one. Nothing special, I play on my games on the Xbox. I just do email,web surfing, mp3, and photos on my computer. Plus I stream to the xbox. But I’d like this machine to be able to run windows 7 when it comes out in 09. I’ve been looking for at least a dual core that can be upgrade to a quad core later, 4GB of ram or more, DVD burner, and vista home premium or ultimate x64. I’d love to get component out so I could hook it to my projector, but that seems hard to find and more expensive that I want to pay right now.
I’ve found that deal at Circuit City
HP desktop, 19 inch monitor & printer for about $600
note: I’m only looking for a desktop computer but the above deal only cost an addition 20 bucks for the monitor and printer.
Anyone point me to anything better? I plan I purchasing in the next few days.
