Well you don't migrate AD to SQL Server 2000. So please explain further what you mean. Do you mean add users to SQL Server 2000 that are Windows users in the AD? If so, you add them with sp_grantlogin.

To query users from AD, you'll need to call the ADS APIs.

Are the users part of a Windows group? If so, you can just add the group to SQL Server.

Hello Tara,

Thanks for all the help. I am trying to obain all the users from Active Directory 2000 using SQL 2000.

How do i link the AD server?
By reading the referenc article, i search that
sp_addlinkedserver 'ADSI', 'Active Directory service Interface','ADSDSOObject','adsdatasource'
to add link server.

Since i have never use the AD with SQL 2000, i would like to use it.
