Re: NT4 -> Win2K3 question

In the lm hosts file, I only have "192.168.1.32 #PRE #DOM:EPO". I'm not
sure it is the reason or not because I demote all the DC back to member
server and turn the backup BDC back to the normal. Thanks for your
information. Hope I can smoothly migrate to Windows 2003 in next Sat.
Thanks for your help.

Hi,

After you disjoin the domain, can you ping DC1 & DC2 by netbios name &IP?
Please try to ping either netbios name & IP and let mek know the results.

I suspect it can be a name resolution issue and I suggest you check the
lmhosts file. See following article:

180094 How to write an Lmhosts file for domain validation and other name
resolution issues
http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;EN-US;180094

314108 How to Write an LMHOSTS File for Domain Validation and Other Name
Resolution Issues
http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;EN-US;314108

BTW: I see another thread in this Migration queue and I suspect the two
thread are talking about the same issue. Therefore, I'd like to work with
you in this thread? Let me know if I'm wrong.

Thanks.

3. For your description: Those 6 PCs *CAN* list DC1 & DC2 NetLogon or
Sysvol directory even I logon as domain Administrator. It said Access
denied. I'm confused. Please check the symptoms you listed and let me
know
if there are any incorrect.

Sorry, typo error. It should be "Those 6 PCs *CANNOT* list DC1 & DC2
NetLogon or Sysvol directory even I logon as domain Administrator. It
said
Access denied. I'm confused. Please check the symptoms you listed and
let
me know if there are any incorrect."

5. Try to dis-join one client out of domain and rejoin it to see the
results.
Tried. One of the PC dis-join the domain (change to join a workgroup,
named
"WORKGROUP"), then I try to re-join the domain. But it should cannot
find
the domain.

Hi,

I have following suggestions:

1. Change the dynamic update to nosecure & secure.

2. Verify if PDC emulator is working or you can install dsclient on
the
NT4
client.

4. Try: ipconfig /flushdns
ipconfig /registerdns

5. Try to dis-join one client out of domain and rejoin it to see the
results.

thanks.

I fail in my last migration due to some of the computers (Windows NT
workstation /w SP6) fail to access Windows 2003 server. Do you have
any
idea why? Thanks.

Background
==========
We have total 50 PCs most of them are Windows NT Workstation and the
rest
is
Windows 2000 in the network. All of them get IP and TCP/IP setting
from
DC1
DHCP server

We have 2 Win2003 standard edition DCs. DC1 installed DNS
integrated
with
AD and secure DDNS, WINS and DHCP. DC2 installed DNS integrated
with
AD
and
secure DDNS, WINS and printer server.

We has 6 Windows NT Workstation PCs has problem.

Symptoms
=========
1. Those 6 PCs can get IP from DC1 DHCP server.

2. Those 6 PCs can logon to the domain

3. Those 6 PCs can ping DC1 and DC2.

4. Those 6 PCs can list DC1 & DC2 NetLogon or Sysvol directory even
I
logon
as domain Administrator. It said Access denied.

5. Those 6 PCs do not run the logon script. I believe it is
because
those
PCs cannot access DC1/DC2 NetLogon directory

6. After change DNS integrated with AD and secure DDNS, only few
PCs
name
and IP address show in the zone under Forward Lookup Zone.
