SBS 2003 & NT 4.0; sharing between


Recommended Posts

Posted

I have a existing NT 4.0 domain and will be installing a SBS 2003 R2. Not

sure if I will create a new forest or use the Active Migration v3 tool.

 

My question, can you share resources between a NT domain and a separate SBS

2003 forest? I know that trusts are not allowed between the two systems.

Jp,

 

You are right in that you can't create a trust, but if you are Ok with

entering foreign credentials you'll be just fine. You will want to set up

WINS to make it so that you can effectively find everything.

Am not sure what 'foreign credentials' means. To rephrase my idea of what I

want to do.

I want to get the SBS installed and not have the users really know that they

are working off of the new server (and/or domain). I don't want anyone to

have to enter in another logon when trying to access the original domain when

opening files/printing or using a network fax system in place on the old

server.

 

Also I want to just have to attend to one workstation at a time and

gradually bring the clients onto the SBS.
