Hi
I have recently installed a Windows 2003 SBS server on a site that was previously using Windows NT4 Terminal Server as their data server. They only have a couple of workstations which I have installed succesfully on the new domain using active directory. They can all log on to the new domain fine. I transferred most of the files off the old server to the new however they still want to leave the old NT4 server on the network. Will this cause any conflicts or problems (domain controller issues) and if so what has to be done ?

Why do they want to leave it on the network. Just make sure DHCP is off on it, if the other server is running it.

I would also demote the NT 4 box so it isn't a DC anymore.
