i.
On the Initial Reverse Synchronization page, specify the password options (such as Set passwords to the user name.)
When you are performing a migration, this page does not include the option to actually perform an initial reverse synchronization, but it is the
page where you specify which password option you want to use.
j.
Set synchronization mode to default object mapping or to custom object mapping.
k.
If you selected custom object mapping, you are prompted to manually establish one-to-one relationships between pairs of objects.
l.
Click Finish.
After the user accounts are migrated, you can migrate the file system (migrating the users before the files allows you to migrate file-system permissions).
Follow the instructions in the Help printout, "To migrate files." The prompts guide you through the following steps:
l
To start the File Migration Utility, click the Start button and point to Programs→ Administrative Tools→ File Migration Utility.
l
To view mapping relationships, click View Maps.
l
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.
l
On the Step 2 — Security Accounts tab, verify that you are logged on with the correct Active Directory, NDS, or Bindery credentials.
l
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.
l
On the Step 4 — Log File tab, select your logging options, and then click Next.
l
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.
l
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 system(s) running NetWare to the Windows 2000 Server or Professional 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 client systems (workstations) running NetWare to the Windows 2000 Professional operating system.
4.
Configure all client systems (both Windows and non-Windows), to join the Windows 2000 domain.
Ensure 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 2000 network on a long
-term basis. If you plan a
staged migration, one-way synchronization is often the appropriate choice.
After doing all the preparation described above, perform the following steps (adjusted, if necessary, to your situation):
1.
Back up your NetWare user and system data.
