Our corp environment req that workstations continue to use W2000 while the domain has been upgraded to W2003. With the W2000 admin tools on my workstation, it appears I can still access and manage the new W2003 AD database. I do realize that there are two distinct version of the adminpak.msi (2000 and 2003).
Q: Following some research, I have found two sources that claim that using the wrong admin tools to administer the AD database, runs the risk of corrupting that database. Any comments or documented reason why using the 2000 adminpak tools could corrupt the 2003 AD database?
