To view mapping relationships, click View Maps.

To view mapped access rights for the users, groups, organization units, and organizations to be migrated, click Access

Rights.

The NDS Modify option converts, by default, to Read because it does not have an equivalent NFTS right. You might want

to click the Write check box to allow read/write access.

On the Step 2 — Security Accounts tab, verify that you are logged on with the correct Active Directory, NDS, or Bindery

credentials.

On the Step 3 — Source and Target tab under Source (NDS/Bindery), click the volume or directories from which you

want to migrate files. Under Target (Active Directory), click the shares or directories to which you want to migrate

files, click the Map button, and then click Next.

If the NDS or Bindery volume you selected in the source tree displays Unavailable, then you are not currently logged in

to that tree or Bindery server. Log in, and then press <F5> after reselecting the volume to view the directories within the

displayed volume.

On the Step 4 — Log File tab, select your logging options, and then click Next.

On the Step 5 — Scan tab, click Scan, and then click Next.

The utility scans all source volumes and counts and displays the number of directories and files in each. It ensures that

proper access has been given to each source volume, directory, and file. If any errors occur, the utility displays them

under NetWare scan logs and Windows scan logs, respectively. You can select a number of acceptable errors; if this

number is exceeded, the process aborts, allowing you to return to previous steps to correct the errors.

On the Step 6 — Migrate tab, click Migrate.

Manually migrate (or use third-party utilities to migrate) object security permissions and system accounts, printer objects,

application objects, and other objects that MSDSS does not migrate from Bindery or NDS to Active Directory. (MSDSS migrates

NetWare user accounts, groups, and distribution lists for Bindery and NDS, and, for NDS only, MSDSS also migrates NDS

organizational units and organizations.)

1. Upgrade your NetWare server(s) to the Windows 2000 Server or Professional, or Windows Storage Server 2003, operating

system.

2. On each Windows desktop in your NetWare network, uninstall Novell Client Access.

You must configure the desktops to join the Windows 2000 domain.

3. Optionally, upgrade NetWare clients (workstations) to the Windows 2000 Professional operating system.

4. Configure all client systems (both Windows and non-Windows), to join the Windows domain.

Be sure that the users know how to handle their password the first time they log in (for possible password options, see

"MSDSS Password Management" in "MSDSS Deployment: Understanding Synchronization and Migration)" at

www.microsoft.com.

Medium-Sized or Large Environment

An organization large enough to have WAN links probably selects to synchronize its networks temporarily while performing a

gradual migration over time (up to 3 months for a large network), or it prefers to use synchronization to establish a mixed

Novell/Windows network on a long-term basis. If you plan a staged migration, one-way synchronization is often the appropriate

choice.
