Basic question.
I'm migrating a large number of NT4 servers from legacy domains to a new windows 2003 AD.

Here's my problem. I'm being warned by the support teams that potentially loads of applications won't work once they're migrated because they've got domain user account references inside the applications.

What type of applications should I be checking for this?

I'm using the Domain Migration Wizard from Quest to perform the move, but am not sure about my above problem.

How do things like SQL cope with a domain migration? Apart from the service account which is a given, how do the permissions inside the databases migrate?

Loads of help would be nice.

You should check all windows services. Those services using other than local system account are most like ones that might fail after upgrade.
