Active Directory Migration.

by rabbit_runner . Updated 23 years, 6 months ago

Here is the information. I would like some discussion on the different options, have you tried any of them, what were the problems encountered, and are there any other options…..

Scenario

1. single forest, single domain
2. Two Domain Servers (DC?s)
3. DNS zone is on a UNIX BIND (8.2.5) Windows has ?read-only? to this primary zone.
4. DNS zone handles internal and external
5. Clients have static IP address (public routable IP)
6. Clients are NT4 (60%) and 2000 Pro (40%)
7. Networkis behind a double firewall which is quite secure
8. Domain is in Mixed mode with 4 BDC?s
9. We created the 4 active directory sub-zones and have ?write? access on the UNIX server. They are _sites.site.domain.com _msdcs.site.domain.com _tcp.site.domain.com _udp.site.domain.com
10. DNS currently is SITE.DOMAIN.COM

Problem

1. I have been told that there will be a DNS change.
2. SITE.DOMAIN.COM will be the public DNS
3. LOCAL. DOMAIN.COM will become the internal DNS
4. Our Current Windows 2000 Domain Name = SITE.DOMAIN.COM

Additonal Information to follow
