In news:OgsVr6v3EHA.1192@tk2msftngp13.phx.gbl,
Jim <jim@nospam.minntech.com> made a post then I commented below
:: We recently upgraded our NT4 domain to AD2003. We are in native mode

The thing I see is if the domain is in Native Mode (whether 2000 or 2003
levels), and this server is in this domain, then it won;t be able to
understand the way groups are defined, since their functionality changes
with mode. For example, group nesting comes into play, which is not an NT4
feature. The domain and forest both need to be in Interim level for an NT4
BDC to be able to participate. Since the domain is already in Native mode,
your best bet it to either upgrade the box or remove it from the domain,
because functional levels can't be changed backwards.
