Hi,

actually our system will migrate from NT 4.0 to Wins 2000 with AD. We have 3
different sites (China, HK and USA). We plan to use the Single forest multi
domain as our AD design.
At USA, we are currently running wins 2000 with AD service but we going to
rename the forest name (which is the forest root of our AD). At China and HK
both are running NT 4.0 server
with PDC and BDC (they are running some applications which are not support
by Wins 2000 therefore we need to keep them in NT 4.0) if i join these PDC
and BDC server to the new
Wins 2000 domain, is it any problem or any special setting. Also, we are
using exchange 5.5 and going to migrate them to exchange 2000 (after the
migration of windows 2000).
That why we need to set the exchange server (BDC) to join the new wins 2000
domain to keep the email services.
By the way how can we migrate the user account and password from NT 4.0
domain into Wins 2000 AD? We tried the ADMT but it alway display "your
domain is not Native mode".


Thanks,
Gary.

Your domain must be in Native mode in order to use ADMT. See the following
