It can be moved while in Mixed mode... We used to use a workstation to =
install NT 4.0 as a BDC, promote to a PDC and upgrade it to 2000. If =
that went smooth, the existing DCs would be rebuilt and the roles =
transfered.=20
The workstation was helpful when upgrading older boxes.. When W2k first =
came out, Raid controller drivers etc were very flaky.

To the list,=20
I know this might be a little off topic, but wanted to see what those =
who
already have an AD network would recommend.=20
I knwo the FSMO Roles can be delegated to other DC's in the domain, by =
using
active Directory Domain and Trust MMC shanp-in. But when you do a =
in-PLACE
upgrade from an NT 4.0 PDC to Win2k DC, which will be in mixed mode. Can =
you
transfer the PDC Emulator role, or does that server need to stay as the =
PDC
emulator until you go to Native Mode?=20
Any suggesstions, looking to replace existing PDC, with new PDC that has =
a
RAID controller, and possibly a 7.8GB parititon ( If I can get the =
Compaq
SSD to build it that way), so that when I upgrade to Win2k, and the
processing of the SAM_ file to NTDS.DIT doesn't run the hard-drive out =
of
space.
