Technically if the forest level or domain level hasn't been upgraded to Windows Server 2003 than he could do it. I wouldn't recommend it at all, but it would work.

You want to move backwards to Windows 2000?  If you were to install 2003 on that server, then it wouldn't be hard to do what you are asking.  But to go back to 2000...

Currently we're using a broken domain controller.  Our primary domain controller went down, and we decided that it wasn't worth fixing.  So we have a file server running Windows Server 2003 Standard.  We have a newer Dell that's running Windows 2000 Advanced Server, which has nothing setup on it.  The only purpose of this server is going to be for a file server.  We've installed Microsoft SyncToy to move everything over and be sure we have the most recent versions of the files.  The only issue now is, how to move the user accounts over so we keep the same permissions, SIDs, etc...to the newer server running Windows 2000 Advanced Server.  We want to shut down the older server that's running Windows Server 2003 Standard.
