Using Microsoft migration tutor. Upgraded NT primary to 2000 primary OK. Attempted to upgrade NT BCD to 2000 BCD received "access denied use and account with sufficient authority to add a server to this domain." Can ping primary DNS is OK. Using domain Admin account.
Any suggestions.

Ok, NT4 model PDC,BDC,,, NT5 model All servers first among equals, unless otherwise configured.
Have you installed and configured Active Directory Services? Given the user account Enerprise Admins group membership or explicit permissions to add anddelegate? Downed, Hardware Reset, and restarted the "BDC" successfully in the "new" win2k domain? There may be more or less steps to go, depending on what the answers to these are, so please provide some feedback and we can go further if needed.
