    Is Windows 2000 server cd bootable?
    Please also check that there is CD-DVD-rom is set to use CD-DVD in Configuration Editor
    And Enabled and connect at startup is selected

    I have to check for answering to first question, if cdrom is not bootable, i should create a virtual floppy boot?

    cdrom is setted as connect at start up and enable.

    while you are answering me i have done as you told.

    I created with start/run X:/bootdisk/makeboot a: the four floppy disk. After with winimage I created the fdd image and with parallel from device menu I changed during the boot the various image floppy.

    It's very simple

    You need to redefine several key combination setting them out from CTRL and ALT
    Please set key combination to others (avoiding CTRL+ALT in the same operation)
    Parallels Desktop - Preferences - Keyboard

    Domain Controller should handle many incoming ports, it is pain to set redirection for all this
