classicupgrade seems great!  Although I've looked for some migration guides, how
didn't I find classicupgrade before? :-)

Let me first understand this.  It seems that, with NT4, I cannot have two PDCs
running on the network.  AD supports this, but I was wondering if I can have
both old PDC and new one running at the same time for the migration.  Is it
possible?

Thank you again.
