I just bought a couple big dell 3ghz duel neon servers
running win2003 server
my current domain is winnt 4 upgraded to 2000 AD
with a couple of BDC's still running nt4 which the 2003 servers are to
replace.

My ?? is can i hook up one of the 2003 servers and
make it a BDC to the 2000 server so i will get all the AD
on it, then take the old 2000 server offline and
use the new 2003 as the pdc?
if i run dcpromo on the 2000 server will it make the 2003 server the catalog
server also.

Thanks
hope I havent confused everyone.

I have almost the same question. The difference is that I dont have any NT4
servers. Only one Win 2000 server that I wanted to get rid of and replace
with a Win2003 server which also will serve as a Terminal server. I've heard
that there can be problems running a domain controller as a terminal server.
Is that true?
