You have always been able to switch from mixed to native. The only requirment is to no longer have any NT4 BDC's. -----Original Message----- From: David Lang [mailto:david.lang () digitalinsight com] Sent: Mon 10/28/2002 2:54 PM To: firewall-wizards () honor icsalabs com Cc: Subject: [fw-wiz] what is the current state of Active Directory mixed-mode? the last time I looked at Win2K Active Directory word was that when run in mixed mode it exposed lots of sensitive stuff via LDAP and that it took a reinstall on the server to switch from mixed mode to native mode. is this still the case? if so can someone please point me at some links that show why mixed mode is a security nightmare? (even though the install on w2k tells you it isn't secure I am in the position of having to proove it as well, sigh...) I've spent the last couple hours going through google searches and have found some hints that it may now be possible to switch from mixed mode to native mode, but nothing definante yet, and while I've found lots of stuff talking about the programming interface to access Active Directory via LDAP in mixed mode I haven't been able to find a single security paper on it, just lots of examples of how people are useing it :-( David Lang _______________________________________________ firewall-wizards mailing list firewall-wizards () honor icsalabs com http://honor.icsalabs.com/mailman/listinfo/firewall-wizards _______________________________________________ firewall-wizards mailing list firewall-wizards () honor icsalabs com http://honor.icsalabs.com/mailman/listinfo/firewall-wizards
