Hi

I am about to migrate our Windows NT4 Domain to a new
2003 Active Directory domain.

I have installed the ADMT and can migrate User accounts,
groups, computers and translate local profiles fine. I
am migrating users with their SIDs intact so that they
can access resources in the old domain for a short period
of time.

They are able to access anything that their account had
specific access to in the ACL and also directories that
are permissioned using global groups set up by me. They
cannot however access any directories in the old domain
that have only "Domain Users" in the ACL. Could you
please tell me if this is by design or could you let me
know the best way to resolve this.

Many thanks

Oliver
