CAUTION
Join an existing forest only if you are the network administrator responsible for the
existing Active Directory forest, and you are adding a new domain controller to that forest. If you are
just evaluating and learning about Windows Server 2008, you should instead create a new forest.
3. You are prompted to enter the fully qualified domain name (FQDN) of the new
forest root domain (nabg.com in this example), as shown in Figure 16-18.
4. You are prompted to enter a domain NetBIOS name. Usually, this will be the
main portion of the domain name you entered for the FQDN of the forest root
domain (for this example, the NetBIOS name NABG will be entered by default).
If the default NetBIOS name is acceptable to you, click Next to continue.
