I am in the process of migrating my Netware infrastructure to a Windows 2003
infrastructure. I am using MSDSS and had the process all mapped out (direct
migration). But at the very end there was a hitch . Basically I was going
to implement a one week freeze on wiriting data to the Netware servers in
order to move everyone over to the domain.
So now I am trying to figure out a way to migrate all the users to the
domain without interrupting access to the Netware servers for even a little
while.

I was wondering if the gateway services for netware would be an adequate
solution in the interim while everyone is moved over and I was wondering how
this works?

If this is not acceptable should I use the Novell client or the Micorosft
client for Netware to keep access to the Netware servers while people are
logging into the domain.

Thanks

P.S. I know gateway services for netware does not work in Windows 2003 and I
would setup a separate Windows 2000 box for this purpose.
 
Oddly...the migration forum we've both been on just told me to post over
here.
