In Windows 2000 Server, the five operation master roles, also known as Flexible Single Master Operation (FSMO) roles, are:
- Schema Master - Manages changes to the directory schema.
- Domain Naming Master - Controls the addition and removal of domains in the forest.
- RID Master - Allocates RID pools to domain controllers within a domain.
- PDC Emulator - Acts as a primary domain controller for backward compatibility and handles password changes and time synchronization.
- Infrastructure Master - Updates references from objects in its domain to objects in other domains.

How many fsmo role in CDC 2008 server?
In a Windows Server 2008 domain, there are five Flexible Single Master Operations (FSMO) roles. These roles are Schema Master, Domain Naming Master, PDC Emulator, Relative ID (RID) Master, and Infrastructure Master. Each role has a specific purpose in the Active Directory environment to ensure proper replication and management of directory data.
What do you do to install a new Windows 2003 DC in a Windows 2000 AD?
If you plan to install windows 2003 server domain controllers into an existing windows 2000 domain or upgrade a windows 2000 domain controllers to windows server 2003, you first need to run the Adprep.exe utility on the windows 2000 domain controllers currently holding the schema master and infrastructure master roles. The adprep / forestprer command must first be issued on the windows 2000 server holding schema master role in the forest root doman to prepare the existing schema to support windows 2003 active directory. The adprep /domainprep command must be issued on the sever holding the infrastructure master role in the domain where 2000 server will be deployed

What FSMO placement considerations do you know of?
Windows 2000/2003 Active Directory domains utilize a Single Operation Master method called FSMO (Flexible Single Master Operation), as described in Understanding FSMO Roles in Active Directory. In most cases an administrator can keep the FSMO role holders (all 5 of them) in the same spot (or actually, on the same DC) as has been configured by the Active Directory installation process. However, there are scenarios where an administrator would want to move one or more of the FSMO roles from the default holder DC to a different DC. Windows Server 2003 Active Directory is a bit different than the Windows 2000 version when dealing with FSMO placement. In this article I will only deal with Windows Server 2003 Active Directory, but you should bear in mind that most considerations are also true when planning Windows 2000 AD FSMO roles

What is a member server?
in Active Directory server roles, computers that function as servers within a domain can have one of two roles: member server or domain controller. A member server is a computer that runs an operating system in the Windows 2000 Server family or the Windows Server 2003 family, belongs to a domain, and is not a domain controller. Member servers typically function as the following types of servers: file servers, application servers, database servers, Web servers, certificate servers, firewalls and remote-access servers.
What is the functionality called that can only be controlled by one DC at a time although all writable domain controllers use multimaster replication?
FSMO Roles (Flexible Single Master Operations). Also known as Operation Master Roles.
