This article was previously published under Q126979

SYMPTOMS

When you use the Migration Tool for NetWare (Nwconv.exe) to migrate users and groups from a Novell NetWare server to Windows NT, the Migration Tool for NetWare may fail to migrate some groups. The Error.log file reports the following error:
[Adding Users to Groups]
Could not enumerate users for Group: <Group_Name>

CAUSE

This problem can occur if the group account referenced by the error in the Error.log file has the same name as a user account on the NetWare server.

RESOLUTION

To work around this problem, rename the group account or the user account on the NetWare server, and then try the group migration again.

STATUS

Microsoft has confirmed this to be a problem in Windows NT versions 3.5, 3.51, and 4.0.
