Networking and Communications

The following sections describe Windows 2000 issues related to networking and communications.

Routing and Remote Access

This section describes a known issue related to Windows 2000 Routing and Remote Access.

Enabling Windows NT? 4.0 RAS Servers in a Windows 2000 Domain

If you are using Windows NT 4.0 Remote Access Service (RAS) servers in a Windows 2000 domain, they must be running Service Pack 4 (SP4) or later. Otherwise, they cannot access the Windows 2000 domain controllers to verify that a user has dial-in permissions. Also, if you set up a Windows NT 4.0 RAS or Routing and Remote Access Service (RRAS) server as a member of a Windows 2000 domain, you must make certain adjustments to Active Directory™ so that the server can access the Remote Access credentials of domain accounts.

You can adjust Active Directory to allow Windows NT 4.0 RAS servers by using either of the following methods:

? When you create a Windows 2000 domain by using the Active Directory Installation wizard to upgrade a server to a domain controller, select the option to allow legacy servers to access Active Directory. If you enabled this access when you created the domain, no further action is required.

? If you add a Windows NT 4.0 RAS server to a domain that has not been adjusted to allow legacy server access, you can use the following command to adjust domain security for legacy server access:

net localgroup “Pre-Windows 2000 Compatible Access” everyone /add

After executing this command, you must restart the domain controller.
