Dear
One of my clients, operating in the aviation sector, still uses about 10 Windows 2003 servers and about 100 XP workstations.I know, this is for a long time already, no longer supported by Microsoft.
But they need to use hardware and software in aviation component production which is only certified by Airbus on these configurations.They still have 2003 domain controllers and 2003 DFL and FFL and want to migrate AD to at least Windows 2012R2 or 2016 with the 2012R2 or 2016 DFL/FFL.I know there are some issues with SMB1 for XP, but this can be solved.
My question is: are there more known issues? Is there someone out there who did this before and willing to share his/her experiences?XP and Windows 2012R2 DC is supported, but what with the DFL and FFL?
Because it’s not supported, its hard to find documentation @ Microsoft about possible issues and remediation's.
Any help is welcome.
Regards
Peter
