We are going to migrate NT4 domain to AD 2003. We have offices at China and HK.<br />
I want to know how to migrate WINS if NT and AD are locaed at same subnet.<br />
For example, we have 2 NT WINS server at 10.10.10.0/16. If i setup another WINS at AD 2003 Domain Controller also at 10.10.10.0/16, any error may occour?<br />
Since client may boardcast for find WINS server, if both AD03 and NT WINS server are on production at same subnet, any potential error?<br />
Current environment: NT4 domain with WINS, 2000 server DHCP, 2000/XP clients. HK and China at different NT domain.<br />
AD 2003 environment: AD 2003, HK and China will in same domain, seperate by OU. Both ofice will have a domain controller for WINS/DHCP/DNS.

Network design and methodology, also known as network architecture, is the design of a communication network. It is a framework for the specification of a network's physical components and their functional organization and configuration, its operational principles and procedures, as well as data formats used in its operation. In telecommunication, the specification of a network architecture may also include a detailed description of products and services delivered via a communications network, as well as detailed rate and billing structures under which services are compensated.
