Does your schema definition match the SFU definition for UID and GUID? That's really what will have to get resolved. One way or another, you'll either have to defunct those attributes or rename them if they don't. Defunct requires 2003 native FFL and rename requires 2008 FFL. However, going to 2003 as an intermediate step has the advantage of NOT having the SFU updates automatically included, until you apply the R2 D2 updates.

We have an AD structure with sub domains. working along with a LDAP Unix based. We made some scripting to sync the 2 things (LDAP and AD) and by doing so we added a UID and GUID to the AD without using SFU (Services For Unix, NOT STFU, please). Our primary controller is old, has W2K server, cannot be upgrade to 2003. We have to upgrade our shema, and active dir structure (adprep) but we are afraid as adprep will upgrade the UID and GUID that a big mess will follow (LDAP not synchronized anymore with the AD, and as we have ~ 10'000 accounts.... I let you imagine the catastrophy. Has anybody experience with that ? or know sbdy who could help ?
