NT 4.0 BDC joining W2K domain

[Bapu]

Is it possible to have an NT 4.0 BDC join a W2K domain?

I have had an NT 4.0 standalone server join the W2K domain
with no problems.

I am concerned about whether a BDC will fail for some
reason.

TIA,

As long as the Win 2k domain is not in native mode you can add a NT 4.0 BDC
to the domain.

I'm not quite sure I understand what you mean by native
mode. Can you elaborate?

TIA,

If all of your DCs are windows 2000, then it is possible
to run in Native mode. Essentially Native mode needs to
be turned on and changes how the DC comunicate with each
other. Once you turn on Native mode, there is no going
back. If you have not turned on Native mode, and have a
2000 DC that acts as a PDC emulator, then you should have
no problem adding it to your existing setup.
