Hi,
we want to migrade our DC to a new Hardware.
The Hardware is some years old.
The Installation is also very old, have allready passed the migration from
NT-PDC to Windows 2000 DC
The DC is also our DHCP-,WINS- and DNS- Server
We have a second DC (Exchange 2000, Catalog Server).

What is the best way.
I think a new installation would be right minded. But how?

regards
Lothar

Hi Lothar,

1. Install the new server as a DC.
2. install the Network services you need it to have: DNS, DHCP, WINS, &c.
3. Demote the old domain controller.
4. Manually go back and verify that any roles assigned to the old server
were successfully moved off of the retired hardware.

Hi Lothar,

Here's a how-to that also includes some links for help with aspects like
DHCP migration, etc. Basically what Ryan said, but with a couple of
screenshots and the like ;-)

Just remember to do the adprep if you're going to 2003.

Thanks Paul. I am afraid I am being a bit laconic today. Its a busy day,
but I am sticking with my NewsGroup addiction on my lunch break.
