The ADC is hard coded to create a Universal Distribution Group, so this
is normal.  The reason you need a native mode domain is so that when the
store.exe process tries to upgrade the distribution group to a security
group, the process will actually succeed (since USGs can only exist in a
native mode domain).  The impact to you in your scenario is that public
folder permissions may fail.

Conversation: ADC & Public Folders
Subject: ADC & Public Folders


I am currently in the process of migrating from Exchange 5.5 to Exchange
2000 via move mailbox method. So far E2K hasn't been installed and I am
preparing AD only. As part of this process I installed the ADC and I
have a question:

When I created the CA from Ex5.5 to AD (One-Way), I noticed the
distribution list got created as a universal distribution group. Is this
normal? I DO NOT have a native-mode Domain and I will not be able to
establish one. How will it impact the permissions on the Public Folders?
Even though all documents say that I need to have a Native-Mode Domain
to map my Exchange distribution list to Universal Group but that isn't
possible. What are my other options?

Thanks,
TMS
