There are actually more options, you could build a new environment and
migrate your users to it. That is more work, but if you have a load of crap
in your domain structure that you need to clean up anyways it can be worth
it.
It would involve
Build new AD in parallel
Create trusts
Migrate users/groups
Migrate workstations
Migrate member servers
turn off old domain controllers
Of course this is oversimplified, but you get the idea.

Do you want to move to AD? Or stay NT4.

Hi folks!
I manage an old NT4 network, with a primary, a secundary and some
independent servers, all of them old boxes, pentium 100 and likes, and some
200 clients. Now I need to change to new Dell boxes, 2500 and 6400, and
introduce W2K, wich is new for me. I dont want to upgrade the old boxes, is
it possible to insert a W2K server in the network without upgrading the NT4
primary?
TIA
