Hi folks, I need to clarify a few things about the Windows 2003 migration. I am on a Windows NT to Windows 2003 and Ex 5.5 to Exchange 2003 migration project. The client decided to use ADMT for the migration.
1. Is there a problem if I change the functional level (forest/domain) to Windows 2003 native? I don’t plan to install BDC or Windows 2000 DC in the new Windows 2003 AD environment. The minimum requirement for SID history migration is Windows 2000 native but I wanted to make sure I wasn't going to break anything if I changed the functional mode to Windows 2003 native. 2. Do I really need to disable SID filtering if I am using SID history migration and plan to access resources in NT using SID? 3. I know ADMT has limited functionality. How long will ADMT keep the previously migrated information? If I migrate a few sets of users this week, can I Re-ACL Exchange or change the File permission next month? Or must I do the Re-ACL at the same time as the migration? 4. Do I need to install ADMT on a domain controller if I am using SID history? I know this is a lot but I really appreciate your time!
