okay so im working on my 2nd migration and here are my questions.
i have a NT4 domain with 1 NT4 pdc and 3 win2k member serverrs.
The client just bought a new machine with win2k server on it(not going to 2k3 cause they have alot of win98,me clients.)
so this is going to be a migration not an upgrade.
q1. Since im creating a fresh domain w/ the new 2k server can i name the server the same as the NT4 pdc(client wants server same name)
q2. Once i migrate the users,computers over to the new domain do i have to run dcpromo on the 2k member servers to bring them up to domain controllers like the new 2kserver.
q3. i have about 125 users should i make at least 1 other server a Global catalog server.
q4. they have an existing login script on the NT4. box, can i copy that into the sysvol folder on the new 2k server to execute the login script when people login in the morning along w/ group policies ?
q5. when migrating i have to create the trust between the 2 domains should i have it both trusting each domain so when i transfer the sid history all of it comes over ?
and finally q6. once migrated can the users still log on and access the old domain ?
i know this is alot of stuff but any help would really be appreciated
thanks in advance.
