The Scenario: Single NT4 Domain, 1 PDC, 1 BDC, a few NT4 Servers and a couple dozen nt4 W/S clients. Major policy usage. All machines will be upgraded to WIN2K

The Questions:
When I UPGRADE the PDC (BDC offline and stuck in a closet) what happens to existing policies
Will I need to use gpolmig.exe and if so where does it get the original policy settings if I've upgraded the PDC
Will I need to recreate the policies and apply them to a specific OU, or will they migrate?
I want the policies to remain in effect during the domain upgrade. Is this possible
Am I too worried about my policies?
 
Charles,

You have asked a ton here! First, what clients will you end up with after
the migration? NT, 2k, XP?

Also, do you have ANY custom ADM templates or special settings other than
the default settings in the NT system policies?

Let's start here and grow from this.
