Windows 2000 AD allows anonymous user enumeration, 2k3 AD does not. If you
upgraded your domain from 2k to 2k3 AD - it allows anonymous user
enumeration. Of corse all you want to prevent this, all you have to do is to
change the policy.
If you happend to know only one SID from this domain, you could enumerate
users in it with any "hack" tool anonymously, because all SID's have common
root. You know that admin account has 500 at the end, and all you have to do
is to try to "guess" the SID's for the rest of accounts. So you start asking
AD for username that belongs to SID 501, 502 .... 1000... 2000 ...3000 etc.
It will return to you the names for the accounts if this SID exists.

I'm fairly certain that by default AD does not allow anonymous browsing
below the root level of the directory. Only authenticated users can
browse
beyond the root.

Try with Cain&Abel.
If administrator disabled anonymous user enumeration trough group policy
you
can't do it.

I'm not sure there is a way to enumerate AD through LDAP without
having to authenticate first. I have not tried it, but I am guessing
that Anonymous Bind is turned off by default (man, now I'm kinda
paranoid, I'll have to check!)
