Re: Cannot locate Domain after migrate from NT to Win2K3

Use ntdsutil.exe for a more reliable way to move fsmo roles.

I found it.

I have 2 Domain controller, computer name areDC1 and DC2.

Both Operations master are DC2.aa.bbb.com.

Now I have few Win2K users also has logon problem, they will get "The
system
cannot log you on to this domain because the system's computer account in
its primary domain is missing or the password on the account is
incorrect."
error message.

Hi,

To identify the PDC emulator

1.Open Active Directory Users and Computers
2.Right-click Active Directory Users and Computers and click Operations
Masters.
3.On the PDC tab, the name of the current PDC emulator appears in
Operations master.

Check if PDC is assigned.

Thanks.
