Directory Data Store
Active Directory data is stored in the Ntds.dit ESE database file. Two copies of Ntds.dit are
present in separate locations on a given domain controller:
%SystemRoot%\NTDS\Ntds.dit This file stores the database that is in use on the domain
controller. It contains the values for the domain and a replica of the values for the forest (the
Configuration container data).
%SystemRoot%\System32\Ntds.dit This file is the distribution copy of the default directory
that is used when you promote a Windows 2000 – based computer to a domain controller.
The availability of this file allows you to run the Active Directory Installation Wizard
(Dcpromo.exe) without your having to use the Windows 2000 Server operating system CD.
During the promotion process, Ntds.dit is copied from the %SystemRoot% \System32
directory into the %SystemRoot%\NTDS directory. Active Directory is then started from this
new copy of the file, and replication updates the file from other domain controllers.
