Is this possible, and has anyone in reality, has anyone done so?
Have a NetWare server and Win2k Server in the same domain on the same sub-net with the same name?
Why am I asking this??? The goal is to replace our NetWare file server with a Win2k file server. Users have applications and data that reference the NetWare file server by UNC (\\ServerA\Datafiles\Bob\quotas.txt) for example. The easy thing for the user would be for use administrators to give the Win2k server the same name as the NetWare file server. But we are asking even if we were able to do this, would their applications function or break?
I’d be interested in hearing any comments regarding this topic. Thanks.
