HI,

According to me if you are having Win2k domain controller and Win Nt BDC. And if your replication is proper between them then there willbe no problem. In general, Active Directory changes can be made at any domain controller in a domain and those changes will be automatically replicated to all of the other domain controllers in the domain.

Check out this Article.

Hi! Run net accounts /sync to synchronize controllers, then demote PDC. I think in this case you will have to promote BDC to PDC. Question---why would you want to demote 2000?
Good Luck!
