wrong, mike isn't wrong, just not entirely clear

 

 

From Q296260

 

IMPORTANT: The ADC replicates all of the Exchange Server distribution lists (DLs) to Active Directory as Universal Distribution Groups (UDGs). You can create these UDGs in either a mixed-mode or native-mode Active Directory domain. However, if you use the equivalent Exchange Server DL object to control access to public folders in Exchange Server, the Exchange 2000 information store process tries to convert the UDG to a Universal Security Groups (USG) because distribution groups are not security principals. If the UDG exists in a mixed-mode Active Directory domain, the USG conversion process does not succeed because USGs can only exist in native-mode domains. This results in a public folder in Exchange 2000 that has an ambiguous Access Control List (ACL); because of this, only the folder owner can access the folder's content, and other Exchange 2000 users cannot even see the public folder in the client hierarchy. When a UDG-to-USG conversion does not succeed, a 9552 event ID message is logged in the Exchange 2000 Application event log. In this scenario, you need a separate Recipient Connection Agreement to replicate the DLs to a native-mode domain.

 

This was my particular scenario during migration. So while I wasn't correct in General, I was correct for some scenarios. So if you use Groups for permissions on PF's, either remove the groups from permissions, or I am correct.

The domain with E2K in it must be Native, yes. The forest need not be.

In the testing stages of migrating from Exchange 5.5 to 2000.

Do you HAVE to be in native mode in AD before migrating?

 

Thanks,
