XFOR: 5.5 Migration Wizard Fails When Creating Windows NT Accounts In Windows 2000 Domain

ID: Q240135

The information in this article applies to:

Microsoft Exchange Server, version 5.5

SYMPTOMS

The Exchange Server 5.5 Migration Wizard may fail to create Windows NT accounts after selecting a Microsoft Windows NT domain from the list of available domains.

CAUSE

The Windows NT domain you selected may be a Windows 2000 domain that has a two-way trust with a Windows NT 4.0 domain. The Migration wizard incorrectly sees this domain and performs the usual Windows NT 4.0 account creation.

RESOLUTION

Do not select a Windows 2000 domain when running the Exchange Server 5.5 Migration wizard even though it is visible in the list of available Windows NT domains.

STATUS

Microsoft has confirmed this to be a problem in Microsoft Exchange Server 5.5 Migration Wizard.
