This is incorrect. Downlevel client authentication will be handled by any DC. Password changes from downlevel clients will be done by the PDC only, unless the dsclient package is installed on the clients. -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Kuhlman, Philip S Sent: Tuesday, January 27, 2004 11:42 AM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: RE: [ActiveDir] Native Mode Yep, all the downlevel (NT 4.0, etc) clients need is the PDC emulator, native mode doesn't matter.  Note that all of the downlevel authentication will be done through the DC that holds the PDC emulator role, so make sure it can handle the load if you have a lot of them.   Phil Phil S.

Just wanted to clear one doubt. Is native mode related only to domain controllers? Can we have NT 4.0 clients in Native Mode? Or do we need everything to be in Win2K including domain controllers and clients?  Regards, Sudhir Kaushal Systems Administrator ( Hosted Team ) eGain Communications Pvt. Ltd.
