Adding a Windows 2000 Server to NT domain

[Guest]

Archived from groups: microsoft.public.windowsnt.domain (More info?)

I have an NT Domain Server (domain name BARNABAS, server
name LABSERVER1) and I am adding a Window 2000 Server to
the domain. I have XP clients that need to gain access to
material on the NT server and the 2000 server, but I am
having difficulty setting up the servers to "talk" to
themselves. Also, the 2000 server is already up and
running. Can you help me in getting these two computers
together so my XP Clients can access resources from both
the NT and 2000 servers?

Thanks

Make the Windows 2000 server a member of your NT4 Domain.
You can do this as long as the Windows 2000 server is not already a Domain
Controller in it own domain. If that's the case all you can do is set up
trust.
Once the Win2k is a member of the NT4 domain add the permissions and access
rights needed for users to access the files on the Win2k. You'll probably
have to add the users to the access this computer from the network in the
Win2k local policy.
