There have been some major changes here at work, and in order to keep up we
need to change some of the Group names in Active directory.  Will the
changes that are made in Active Directory cascade down into SQL Server?
What is the protocol for this type of change?

Thanks,
Drew

No. On 2005, you can rename a login (to reflect the name change) using ALTER LOGIN.

You can't change the name for a login in 2000. You'd have to delete and re-create the login...
