NetWare Migration to A/D

[Doug Klein]

We are just in the planning stages for a NetWare migration to A/D - it will
start after we complete our NT 4.0 migration to A/D. Most of the threads
for NetWare assume a clean or empty A/D. Any suggestions on how to proceed
when it is fully populated? Today, the same ID is in NDS and NT. After the
NT migration, I'll want to map the A/D ID to the NetWare files and
repermission as they are converted. We have about 5,000 users and 60
servers to migrate.

Thanks for your help.

I don't know if you have considered the MSDSS tool since you didn't
mention it. The following articles describe it's function and how to
get it.
