| There a a lot more pieces of information that somneone would need to answer that question, but here is a guess at what you are looking for.Is the 2000 Server going to be the new domain controller running in mixed mode along with the current NT4 Domain Controller? If so, then you are probably not going to change the domain name, you are just starting in mixed mode, in that case you should be fine. If the Domain is actually going to change, you will probably want to join the SQL Server to the new domain. You will likely also want to change the SQL Server Service, and the SQL Agent Services to log in with a new domain user, who has adequate rights in the new domain. Beyond that it should just be a matter of ensuring that the users in the domain who will need direct access are set up in SQL Server.Might be a good idea to take Microsoft's 2072a class, administering MS SQL Server 2000. If you don't have access to a class, you can buy the book from MS Press. |
