The very last one we had was also a SQL box that had a proprietary db on it no one could figure out how to migrate (or more likely would take on the risk). Of course it was mission critical. I had to maintain the NT domain & NT4 trust to AD just for that one app. We told them all bets were off if the domain fell over, the DCs were like 8 or 9 yrs old and no parts, unsupported HW, unsupported OS...you know the drill. They filed an exception with extension after extension from the compliance folks till they finally replaced it. I was a happy camper to finally whack that last NT 4 trust.

That said, we still have a few NT4 servers with 'critical' data that cannot be upgraded (HR/Financial) from old 'divisions'. We are seriously considering just porting their databases over to newer server and getting some SQL Reporting Services reports made to access it. Just abandom the apps themselves as they are old and not used anymore.

Truth be told, there are a lot more that folks might think....

I figured anyone still running a W2K DC must be hurting for resources and maybe they have some weird business need for it. It makes me wonder how many NT4 networks might still be out there... -Jeff Steward On Thu, Sep 23, 2010 at 7:11 PM, Webster <[email protected]> wrote: Pardon me for asking but who in their right mind would allow YouTube on a Terminal Server?
