It strikes me that this could potentially save a whole lot of effort in migration scenarios with a lot of BDCs. http://www.algintech.com/UTools/UPromote.asp The migration I'm working on has a large number of NT 4.0 domains (150+) and the NT 4.0 DCs are typically not dedicated - lots of File and Print, SQL, etc. I'm thinking there must be a gotcha with such tools - it just sounds too easy.
