We are running 2 2003 Domain controllers, 2 2003 Terminal servers and 1 2000
Fax Server.  We have purchased a new server and trying to decide in between
Windows 2003 Server or 2008.   With 2008, will we have any problems with AD
and the 2000 Server?  We are running in mixed mode.  Thanks

Hello Conley,

No, they can coexist.

Yes they can, but in many cases you must use the lowest common denominator
and sacrifice a few features.  I can't find a link that gives info on the
specifics.

The new server(2008) will be a File Server.  It will join the 2003 domain.

Just not as a Domain Controller without raising DFL to 2000 Native.
