Hi Mark,
Thanks for posting!
According to the description, you require to decommission previous Windows
NT 4.0 server. Actually, you have several choices after you migrate objects
successfully. You may then upgrade all the BDCs. Or, if you want, you can
decommission them as BDCs safely, and either leave them as NT servers or
install Server 2003 on them and in ether case make them ordinary member
servers. In all, if you do not want to use the Windows NT server, it is
recommended that you make all the DC as Windows 2k3 which you can benefit
from new feature of Windows 2k3 Domain running as Windows Server 2003
function level.
Note: Microsoft does not support to demote NT BDC to NT member server.
What are the domain and forest function levels in a Windows Server
2003-basedActive Directory?
