Does anyone know how to move existing DNS zones from one server to another? Replacing our server.
 
I should have mentioned this is for Win2003 DNS.
 
Install second server. Run dcpromo on it and make it a dc. Replicate the two. Transfer the fsmo. Run dcpromo on the first and demote it to stand alone server. Ok?

depends on if you are running on a DC or standalone machine (member server)
