Migration Tool for NetWare Does Not Create Local Groups (176618)
The information in this article applies to:
- Microsoft Windows NT Server 3.5
- Microsoft Windows NT Server 3.51
- Microsoft Windows NT Server 4.0
This article was previously published under Q176618 SUMMARY
Some documents for the Migration Tool for NetWare (Nwconv.exe) state that
when groups on a NetWare server are transferred to a Windows NT master
domain, they are created as both global groups in the master domain and as
local groups on the server specified in the Servers For Migration list.
This is an error in the documentation. Local groups are not created.
MORE INFORMATION
After you select the appropriate NetWare and Windows NT servers for
migration, the User And Group Options dialog box appears and the Transfer
Users To Trusted Domain option becomes available by clicking the Advanced
button. This option is used to transfer users and groups to a domain other
than the one in which the utility is being run.
The error noted above can be found in the Migration Tool for NetWare help
file (Nwconv.hlp) in Windows NT 3.51 and 4.0, and also in the Windows NT
3.5 "Services for NetWare Networks" manual, pg. 91.
