NT 4 Issue

[cmstforr]

Hi,

First of all thanks for taking time out to read this message.

I am new to NT 4 but have recently been asked to support an NT 4 server. I know windows 2000/2003 well and would like to know if you think I would have any problems getting to grips with this type of server. I hope to upgrade their NT 4 server to Windows 2003 Server asap but know that I will need to use it for approximately 5-6 months before upgrading the hardware and software.

Hope you can give me some advice.

Cheers,

Tomas.

If you're familiar with 2k/2k3 server - should be ok with NT server - just have to get used to the different interface to access the (more restricted) features.

They're pretty different, but as with all these things, intuition goes a long way.

I'd say if you're OK with 2000 / 2003, you'll be OK. NT is obviously more primitive, something that will work in your favour.
