Hi,
I am running win2k domain in mixed-mode. is there any way
to convert:
1)a global distribution list to a global security group?
2)a global security group to a global distribution list ?
3)a global security group to a local security group
thanks in advance-Rob

If you are using SP3 or later you can use the WIndows 2003 tool DSMOD to do
this.

Hi Rob,

To convert a group, the domain functionality must be set to Windows 2000
Native or higher. You cannot convert groups when the domain functionality
is set to Windows 2000 Mixed.

For more information, please refer to the following article.

Does the WIndows 2003 tool (DSMOD) work on win2k with
mixed-mode?

As I know, it only works in Native Mode.
