Bedz,
I would suggest that you should use netdom. netdom is a utility that is
available from the Support Tools. The Support Tools can be found on the
WIN2000 Server CD as well as on the WIN2000 Service Pack CD in the Support |
Tools folder. I would opt for the Service Pack CD.
Install the Support Tools on all of your WIN2000 Servers ( Exchange Server,
Domain Controllers, Member Servers, et al ).
The concept is that you need to have NetBIOS name resolution first and
foremost. You can achieve this either through WINS ( where both WINS
Servers are replication partners ) or through the use of LMHosts files ( on
the WINNT 4.0 PDC and the WIN2000 DC that holds the FSMO Role of PDC
Emulator ). Please take a look at the following MSKB Article for creating
the correct LMHosts file:
http://support.microsoft.com/?id=180094
Then, go to the WIN2000 DC that holds the PDC Emulator Role and enter the
following:
c:\>netdom trust olddomain /D:newdomain.com /UserO:Administrator
/PasswordO:nt4 /UserD:Adminsitrator /PasswordD:win2000 /Add /Twoway
This will create a two-way trust between the 'old' domain ( aka WINNT 4.0 )
and the 'new' domain ( aka WIN2000 ).
HTH,
Cary
