Documenting it as you make the changes is the best.
Next to that, you can use Visio to pull the organisation details using
a little VSD "wot microsoft wrote"
Next is an application such as Tivoli or Robomon that will keept tabs
on things like that so if you change stuff it gets recorded elsewhere.

I bought one of those old fashioned bound green record books that you can
find in a real office supply store. I have written down the steps for
recovering our server on a recovery server (on our system, the first admin
group has a different name so the steps are a little different) all the
patches, hotfixes and updates I have put on the machines-I have also written
down what files are on what drive, what our policies on retention, quotas,
etc are and so forth. This is our beer truck document (if I am hit by a beer
truck, someone can pick up this book and figure out what I have done to the
system. -Drew
