RE: [ActiveDir] NT Member Server Migration to AD 2003

[Nicolas Blank]

Debbie, unless you want to take advantage of the features which the directory client provides, there’s very little that needs doing to member server. I find that depending on what the servers are hosting, that re/acl-ing and moving them to the target domain is all that needs doing. Is there a reason why these need to stay NT4 ? I’ve seen file/print boxes behave much better after moving onto win2k3, but then you might have an app that needs to live on NT4 ?   From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Ellis, Debbie Sent: 19 February 2004 05:01 PM To: '[EMAIL PROTECTED]' Subject: [ActiveDir] NT Member Server Migration to AD 2003   We have reached the phase in our migration where all the users and their computers have been migrated.  We are upgrading most of our member servers to 2000 before migrating. There are a few servers we are leaving at NT4.  We are using NetIQ Migration Suite and it works great.  The question I have is have any of you had any problems migrating NT 4 member servers to  AD?  Are there any preparations that need to be done before the member servers are migrated. I know with our NT workstations we  installed the directory services client, but I understand that is just for workstations.  Our domain controllers are all 2003.
