Hello everyone,



we are lookig at upgrading W2K3 AD to W2K8R2 and I started reading the
following pieces:

http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc731188(WS.10).aspx

http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/upgrade-domain-controllers-to-win
dows-server-2008-r2(WS.10).aspx



What other reasings would you suggest? Given there are many bloggers in this
list, of course any pointer to blog articles would be very welcome too! J

Specifically I am looking at some information about common issues/mistakes
you may encounter in an AD migration to W2k8R2.



Thanks so much - Gabriele.

Hope this helps, from the notes..



Issue: NT4 crypto disabled by default.

NT4 machines will not be able to create a secure channel to 2008r2 DC.
Cannot form a trust relationship with an NT4 domain.

KB 942564



Issue: DES encryption for KERB disabled.

Any Kerberos clients (Non-windows) will fail. Joining Linux/Unix clients
to domain, not samba

KB 977321



Issue: Hard LDAP query limits

Modify LDAP query policy

KB 2009267



Issue: NSPI connections to 2008r2 are limited to 50. (Affects
Blackberry)

NSPI creates one connection per device it is servicing. So if servicing
more than 50 devices, it will limit to that number.

KB 949469



Issue: LMHASH is disabled by default.

Clients may need LMHASH for passwords. Like Win95, 98 or third party

KB 946405



Issue: RPC behavior changed

Firewall rules. RPC dynamic port range changes to 49152, 65535. IANA
Standards.

KB 929851



LMv2

KB 976918



Channel bind token (Affects SAMBA)
