Vince Basically switching to native mode wil stop replication with your NT BDCs (they're not supported) and you'll not be able to add any NT BDCs to your AD domain any more. Your benefits will be access to the universal groups. As long as 1 of your BDCs is Exchange 5.5 (and you can not change it's BDC role) I would recommend to stay away from it.

I still have 2 BDC running and one of the BDC is also running Exchange 5.5. If I change my Domain controller to native mode, am I going to have any problem? I'm not too sure I understand the consequences of switching to full native mode.
