Migrating NT 4.0

[MagnumVP]

I have a single domain with 10 users and 10 computers and 1 PDC 4.0 Server. It should be an easy migration.

I can't upgrade the current server because it is REALLLLLLY old.

I was going to create a new domain on the 2003 box and use the ADMT to migrate users/computer/passwords to the new computer then turn the old computer into a File Server.

Are there any HOWTO documents that can help with a migration of this?

BEFORE YOU START CHANGING ANYTHING!!! (1) Make sure you have great backups (2) take a BDC offline

Good Fortune!!

Then I guess I better have a good backup. It is only a single Server Domain...no BDC's.

Thanks for the information.

NO

Make sure to install a BDC on another machine and then upgrade the PDC if you don't want to have any surprises...

For small shops what you could do is just use PC and install it as a bdc and take it off-line.
