Functional Level Raising from 2000 mixed mode to 2003

Hello,

All clients in domain are XP, except one (Widows2000). I am currently not
sure whether XP4 is installed. This client use network shared drives in the
domain where it needs to access files.

Before doing the FLR, I want to be sure that this client will not be
disturbed in any way (SMB signing?). Could someone confirm this?

Thanks and best regards.
Hubert

Hello hretif,

Functional levels have effect on DCs, not on client machines and Windows
2000 or Windows XP machines will work also with the higher level.

Best regards
