<H1>Interforest migration</H1>
<P>Active Directory Migration Tool can be used to migrate users, groups, and computers between Windows&nbsp;NT domains and Windows&nbsp;2000 domains. The process of migrating users, groups, and computers is referred to as <A ID="wPopup" HREF="HELP=ADMTGlos.hlp TOPIC=DomainMigration">domain migration</A>.</P>
<P>An <A ID="wPopup" HREF="HELP=ADMTGlos.hlp TOPIC=InterforestMigration"> interforest migration</A> is any move from a domain outside of a particular <A ID="wPopup" HREF="HELP=ADMTGlos.hlp TOPIC=forest">forest</A> to a Windows&nbsp;2000 domain inside that forest. Because Windows&nbsp;NT domains are not part of a forest, migrating users, groups, and computers from a Windows&nbsp;NT domain into a Windows&nbsp;2000 domain is considered an interforest move.</P>

<P>As shown in the illustration, moving <A ID="wPopup" HREF="HELP=ADMTGlos.hlp TOPIC=SecurityPrincipal">security principals</A> or resources from any of the domains on the left of the forest boundary (<A ID="wPopup" HREF="HELP=ADMTGlos.hlp TOPIC=SourceDomain">source domains</A>) into any of the domains on the right (<A ID="wPopup" HREF="HELP=ADMTGlos.hlp TOPIC=TargetDomain">target domains</A>) is an interforest move because the source and target domains are not in the same forest.</P>

<P>Most organizations that are currently using Windows&nbsp;NT have <A ID="wPopup" HREF="HELP=ADMTGlos.hlp TOPIC=AccountDomain">account domains</A> and <A ID="wPopup" HREF="HELP=ADMTGlos.hlp TOPIC=ResourceDomain">resource domains</A>. As shown in the illustration, the steps to perform an <A ID="wPopup" HREF="HELP=ADMTGlos.hlp TOPIC=InterforestMigration">interforest migration</A> include migrating the user and group accounts in the account domains; migrating the service accounts, local profiles, and <A ID="wPopup" HREF="HELP=ADMTGlos.hlp TOPIC=SharedLocalGroup">shared local groups</A> in the resource domains; and then updating the rights of the migrated users. When the migration is complete, the <A ID="wPopup" HREF="HELP=ADMTGlos.hlp TOPIC=SourceDomain">source domains</A> can be decommissioned, and the computers can be moved into the <A ID="wPopup" HREF="HELP=ADMTGlos.hlp TOPIC=TargetDomain">target domain</A>. Essentially the same steps can be used to migrate Windows&nbsp;2000 domains from one forest into Windows&nbsp;2000 domains in a different forest.</P>
