When we upgraded Exchange to 2007, we had to install W2k3 dc's. Right now we
are in mixed mode as we have to keep a couple of the W2k DC's running. W2K3-DC
(server) is the ops master and pdc emulator.
However, I have run into two situations where it seems the old W2K DC (DC1) ops
master seems to be causing problems.
Case 1: Windows time. It appears most pc's are syncing their clocks to DC1
instead of W2K3-DC.
Case 2: GPO's are not applying properly (note we don't have that many and they
only apply to specific computers). Usually the error on the pc in question is
that it can't contact a domain controllers to get the policy.
I'm perplexed over this as I thought that whatever was the Ops Master for the
domain was the top-level controller (for want of a better phrase).
