Hi all!

I am using ADMT to migrate computer accounts from my NT 4
domain to w2k AD. When I run the tool to migrate a
computer, however, it fails with a log error of "the rpc
server is unavailable". These are XP pro machines.

I truly and gratefully appreciate any help you can give
me! Thank you!
 
Being enabled is one thing, but being set to the correct addresses for your
network is another. This is almost certainly related to WINS or, more
likely, DNS. Without knowing anything about your setup, though, it's
difficult to suggest anything.

Yess!!!

Are you able to ping the XP Pro machines from the machine running ADMT?

Do the following commands succeed from the ADMT machine?

NET VIEW \\<machine>

NET USE \\<machine>\admin$

Please also provide a snippet from the log which includes the error.
