I believe that most of them were Exch5.5 Dist lists that got converted to AD Universal Dist groups in the migration to Exch2K. The only groups that appear in the GAL are in a folder called distribution lists inside the users container in AD - that was created by the ADC before the migration. I may have several that were created as Win2K Universal Dist groups as well but it seems to me that I have to put them in that folder before they show up in the GAL - does that sound right?. Thanks!

I know you meant "User Groups". I think if you go to Native and your groups are not a certain type you may have some issues administrating them. I would have to look but I thought there was something regarding that. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Hague, Jeff" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: "Exchange Discussions" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Friday, January 03, 2003 12:51 PM Subject: Going native in AD & Exck2K I have finally eradicated the last of my NT4 DCs and am thinking about native mode AD. I am starting to get the feeling though that making the switch may have an impact on my GAL and distribution lists. (I know it will have an impact on what I can do with dist lists but some comments in reading various Exchange resources indicate that it will affect my existing GAL and groups. I am running a single Exch2K server which is in Exch mixed mode as well. I have completed the migration from 5.5 (a couple of months ago) so I guess I could go Exchange native too. Am I reading something wrong? Do any of you know of anything I should look out for?
