Hello,

We've doing an inplace upgrade of our NT4 domain to AD 2K3. We also need to
change the domain name at some point. We have the PDC and 3 BDCs, and about
300 PCs. Can the domain name be changed in NT4? If so, would it still be
better to upgrade to AD first and then use the rename tool or is it easier in
NT4?

Thanks,


P

I haven't renamed a domain before but to rename a NT 4.0 domain see:
http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;en-us;169741

To rename an AD domain see:
