4 Replace services or applications that require NDS with software compatible with
Active Directory. (NDS applications should be moved before you begin using MSDSS,
except for ZENworks, which can be replaced by IntelliMirror at any time.)
5 Install MSDSS from the system DomainUtils share.
NOTE: To access MSDSS software, map a network drive to \\<Dell
xxxxxxx
>\DomainUtils
where <Dell
xxxxxxx
> is the name of the PowerVault 75xN system.
6 Log on to the NDS tree or bindery server as Administrator.
7 Log on to the appropriate Windows 2000 domain as a member of the Domain Admins
group.
8 On the MSDSS server, open the Help files, and then print out the procedures “To
perform a one-time migration” and “To migrate files.”
9 Click the Start button and point to Programs—> Administrative Tools—> Directory
Synchronization to start MSDSS.
10 Follow the instructions as described in the Help printout “To perform a one-time
migration.” The prompts will guide you through the following steps:
a Right-click MSDSS in the console tree, and then click New Session to start the
New Session Wizard.
b Specify whether objects will be copied from NDS or Bindery.
c Click Migration.
d If you plan to migrate files as well as directory objects, click the Migrate Files

i On the Initial Reverse Synchronization page, specify Password Options (such as

When you are performing a migration, this page does not include the option to
actually perform an initial reverse synchronization, but it is the page where you
specify which password option you want to use.
j Set synchronization mode to default object mapping or to custom object
mapping.
