RE: NT4 Migration path

Hi,

Thanks for posting!

1. Both dom1 and dom2 will be the child domain for maxis.com.my so whath is
the best migration path for this kind of setup? Any guide avalaible

--- You may create two child domains in Windows 2k/2k3. Then you can use
ADMT to migrate the original two Windows NT to the two child domain
separately.

2. Is it possible to move all my users and nt/2000 server and nt/xp
workstation to our new childs domain. I still will want my nt server be
avalaible in both child domain. Is there any guide available?

Yes, you can also use ADMT migrate the users and computers account to the
new child domain. However, the NT PDC cannot be available in this scenario.

and
| (BDC) at each site plut nt and 2000 standalone server. Both domain are
| configured

example.

|
| Our network Users are using windows nt 4.0 workstation, windows 2000 pro
| and xp pro client.
|
| We are also running exchange 5.5 and sql 7.0
|
| Question
|

is

| best migration path for this kind of setup? Any guide avalaible
|
| 2. Is it possible to move all my users and nt/2000 server and nt/xp
