AD-Integrated DNS and NT4

[allbymyself]

We have an NT4 domain. We are converting to Windows 2003.I have DNS installed on Windows 2003 servers and NT4 is pointing to those dns servers. If I change the w2k3 dns to Integrated DNS will this cause problems on the NT4 side?

no impact, bear in mind, NT4 will use WINS for netBIOS name resolution as well. so , u need to make hostname being resolveed at least.

You may want to install an lmhosts file temporarily just to help name resolution. This might help.

you cannot make the zone AD integrated unless the 2003 server is a DC.
