Have a number of 2003 DCs in a 2003 Native Mode forest. We've finally committed to upgrading to 2008 R2. Done the schema extensions, but I have a concern about the issue raised in a KB that I now cannot track down about the NT4-mode authentication no longer functioning. We haven't had an NT4 box in years, but we do have a number of older NAS systems (Buffalo units) and old applications.
My question has to do with when this loss of functionality occurs. Is it when the first 2008 R2 DC is promoted into the 2003 functional level domain, or is it actually when the forest functional level is first elevated to 2008 R2 (which makes the most sense to me).
