oh ya, I forgot to mention: the purpose of this whole thing is because we are switching PDCs. So we need this done before they are switched, or else the Win2000 machines wont be able to log on.
Win2k, on an NT4 network, will only authenticate to the PDC unless it has an LMHOSTS file that explicitly tells it the locations of other Domain Controllers. You also cannot add the machine to the domain unless it knows where the PDC is, and the before mentioned NetBIOS problem is prohibiting that currently. So any Win2k machines that are not at this site need to have an LMHOSTS file.
