mixed to native mode

[charliey_2000]

Hi,

I have switched from a mixed mode to native mode many
times in the past when ever the windows 2000 domain was in
all windows 2000 domain environment. Currently at my new
position our windows 2000 domain is in mixed mode. We
don't have and never will have any nt domain controllers
in our 2000 domain. We do have some trust relationships
configured with nt 4 domains. I am 99% positive that
switching to native mode will not make any differeces with
the trust relationships. We do have some applications
like bindview and scriptlogic that I am not so sure with.
Has anyone had any negative experience from switching to
native mode. Im really sure we can now with out any
negative impact but I have to convince others that are a
little gun shy since it is a one time deal.

True.

You don't have backups and a proven disaster recovery?

Ciao, Walter

Going to native mode will not affect the trust relationships. But make sure
you have a disaster recovery plan just in case something happens to your
third party software.
