Upgrading to Active Directory - RAS

For an Active Directory based server, you set the dial-in properties on the Dial-in tab on the user account in Active Directory Users and Computers. There are 3 options under Remote Access Permission: Allow Access, Deny Access, Control access through Remote Access Policy. The Control access through Remote Access Policy option is only available on user accounts in a Windows 2000 native-mode domain. Also, new accounts created in a Windows 2000 mixed mode domain are set to Deny access.

User accounts upgraded to Windows 2000 that were configured with dial-in permission enabled are set to Allow access.

I’m going to assume (in the event we can’t test this) that this works the same way it does now, first the user gets the Allow access, then it checks the Remote Access Policy on the RAS server. However, since we will be in mixed mode, and the Control access through Remote Access Policy is unavailable, does this mean it doesn’t check that and just allows or deny’s based on the dial-in permissions tab?

Any one done this? Thanks.
