Upgrade to 2000 Questions

by jbk1009 . Updated 22 years, 7 months ago

Ok, I know I am so far out of practice here that I truly just want some clarification.

I have read the Microsoft White Paper on the upgrade, but : am grey on some areas. Any help is appreicated:

I have an NT4.0 server, call it OLD, and a NT4.0 server, Called New. The New is just that, and I have promoted it to PDC from OLD, thus OLD is the BDC.

I want to just run the upgrade on NEW, if I understand correctly, and it holds all my user account information as well as my Domain information.

1. Do I need to do anything with my users after the upgrade?
2. In AD, I understand I have to put in a domain name, like xyzcompany.com? How does that effect my existing domain structure which is simply xyzcompany and also the domain my folks have in their login screens?
3. Do I have to change everyones login from xyzcomany to the xyzcompany.com?

Thanks for your help.

JB
