PROBLEM
Myung Bang found following. He was doing some testing with NT
security and came acrossed something wierd with Win2K client. He
has a NT 4.0 Master domain and with all NT DCs, servers and
clients have SP6a installed. Within the domain, there are few
Win2K clients, also. Myung was going to set the
LMCompatibilityLevel to 5 on all DCs, Servers and clients. Right
now, all DCs are set to 0 (by default).
He changed the LMCompatibilityLevel to 5 on one NT 4.0 client
machine (all DCs are still level 0) and that machine was able to
login to the domain as he expected. Then he changed the
LMCompatibilityLevel to 5 on Win2K machine, and it could NOT login
to the domain. Then he changed LMCompatibilityLevel to 4 and 3,
but still can't login. He changed LMCompatibilityLevel to 0 and
it will let You login again. LMCompatibilityLevel 0, 1, and 2
will let You login.
All documents states that clients with LMCompatibilityLevel 5-0
can login to Domain where DCs with LMCompatibilityLevel 0.
