I have a small Win2k3 TS server setup as a member of a Win2k3 domain. The
existing domain controller will be decommissioned and a new DC, with a new
domain name, will be installed. What is the best way to handle the migration
of the TS to the new domain? Just removing it from the first domain and
adding it to the new domain seems to simple. I'm worried about user
profiles, etc. Can anyone advise on best practices?
Thanks,
Joe
 
Re: Moving TS to new domain

You'll get all new profiles as it will be all new user accounts. You could
use tools from Quest Software and others that move profiles. As for the
rest, make sure you mov eyour GPO's and make sure your security settings on
the server are correct (like NTFS). And don't forget your license server.
