Thank you for your quick responce. I have some more qeustions, I
dont want to change domain names cause i have alot of users
and profiles under my current domain name, or is there a way
to move profiles on pc's from one domain to another domain?
Another qeustion to this upgrade issue. What if i add a bdc to
current domain with pdc (NT4), take the bdc of the net and promote
it to pdc, upgrade to Win2k3, take the original NT4 pdc of the network
and add the new win2k3 pdc to the network. Will that also work ?
