More info?)
Johan,
What do you not understand?
Show me the file that you created when you ran the ldifde -m -f users.ldf
command ( or whatever command you used as there are a lot of switches that
you could have used - and probably should have used ). I do not need to see
all of it, just the part with your user accounts - and you should probably
change the names on the user accounts to Jane Doe and John Doe and the like
since everyone on the Internet will be able to see them....You do not want
to be giving out this information in a public forum ( and you might be
prohibited by law from doing such ).
Then, tell me the name of the new domain into which you are trying to import
and show me the command line that you are using. Again, do not use the real
domain name. So, if it really is nkdsolutions.com you might want to change
it to notyours.com ( for purposes of the .ldf file..... ). Again, you do
not want to be giving out this information in a public forum....
You might also want to do a search in this specific NG using my name and
'ldifde' as search parameters. I have laid things out several times in here
on how to do this....
