Hi, This may be a bit long-winded, please excuse it before hand. I am running a network with 2 different domains at a public school. 1 Server (Windows 2000 Server) runs our administrative side, and the other server (Win NT 4.0) runs our student side. Our Win NT 4.0 Server is our DHCP server...

LOL....thanks for the advice man.....phew, I have a job ahead of me :-( and nope, no other help that is reliable or knowledgable enough. Guess I will just deal with what I have until the kiddos fall break or something. Thanks for everything! Oh, and James, let me know how yours works at...

so is the process of "blowing away" AD a chore? Or is it just a matter of going through the wizard and making it a domain without AD? I could keep my same domain name that way, correct? that way I will not be making 150 trips to workstations? :-) Thanks, Chris Nelson Technology...

I could have swore that I setup the Win 2K server as a BDC....I know I am running in "mixed" mode. The DHCP server is the Win NT 4.0. Yes, I am running DNS on both NT and Win 2K.....I tried setting up the NT 4.0 server as the Win 2K server's DNS Server, but it doesn't want to take it...

Hello, and thanks for your posting(s). I may have seemed quite ignorant about this setup....for I was (am). Win 2K Server is new to me. I am knowledgable with Win 2K PRO, but Server is new to me. I have been working with NT 4.0 and Novell the past couple years setting up schools all over the...

oh, ok...I see now....thank you, and I will try it, and I will let you know sometime tomorrow. Thanks again! Chris Nelson Technology Coordinator Little Axe Public Schools

ok, if I setup the the Win 2K workstations to have the Internet server as their DC, then how will they be logging into my Win 2K Server and running their scripts? And BTW, I did not setup the Win 2K Server exactly like the NT 4.0 server.....I just setup the Win 2K Server as a domain controller...

If I setup the Win 2K Server the eaxct same as the Internet Server (NT 4.0), will it not effect the network state (workstations)? Will it not confuse (having two domain controllers with DNS/WIN Proxy)? Guess am confused on that. And yes, during the initial setup of AD, I pointed it to the...

redundant is fine with me! as long as it gets things going :-) checked TCP/IP settings? well, they are not specifying a DNS server (automatically detects IP address etc.) because our NT 4.0 Server is the Internet server (running WIN Proxy/DNS). So the TCP/IP settings will be blank on the...

Yes, I am positive it did not make me try again....my domain is setup as LITTLE_AXE :-( OK, and Mammoth, you have me a little confused (sorry :-( ) My Win 2K Server is running DNS (under services). Our main domain controller (for littleaxe.k12.ok.us) is our Win NT 4.0 Server. Maybe I have...

yes, I was leaving off the .com The Win 2000 Server does not have a .com name that I am aware of....our Internet hosting server is another server (Win NT 4.0 running WIN Proxy).

well, lol...that maybe the problem then! yes, the name of my domain is LITTLE_AXE,,,,,are you positive it cannot contain an underscore (_)? I feel like such a dope if that is the case, and now I have about 100 computers to change :-( <<<sighs. Wish there were a script that I could run from...

Thanks, I will try it Monday, and I will let you know. Thanks! Chris Nelson Technology Coordinator Little Axe Public Schools
