Yeah we had customers that for some reason fell in love with the NT DC's
like they were their own children and we were trying to replace them
with small yappy dog or something.=20

Anyway once you get the 2k box to authenticate to the 2k DC then you are
fine since it will prefer those from then on. But look out if they are
using NT 4.0 machines.

That's probably why we never had a problem.  We didn't leave NT 4.0 DC's
out
there long after the first one was upgraded.

You don't HAVE to be, but if your users authenticate against a NT 4.0 DC
the policies will not always apply properly.

Scott,

I am glad to hear that this is now working for you.  But, not to
disagree
with Rob, you don't have to be in native mode to make Loopback policies
work.  We were using loopback over a year before we switched to native
mode
without issue.

Ok, I changed to Native mode and waited about 45 minutes.  Still no go.
After looking at my setup that is working at another office with the
single
dc...i did notice something different.  Under the properties of existing
OU's (My citrix servers...domain controllers), there are tabs for
General,
Managed By, Object, Security and Group Policy.  At the office with 2
dc's
the properties for the ou's dont have the tabs Object, and Security.
What
would cause that and could that be an indication of what's wrong?

This wouldnt happen to be a dns problem would it?  I have the first dc
as a
dns server.
