We're getting a 2003 Server here. We have RIS running on our 2000 Domain
controller w/DNS & DHCP.

Is there a trick I need to know to move all my images from the 2000 domain
controller to the 2003 member server (which will not be a DC or running
DNS/DHCP)? Can I just XCopy them or will SIS give me problems? I realize
I'll have to authorize the new RIS server and all that. Any tips are
appreciated!

Thanks in advance!

We did exactly this - install RIS on the 2003 server, add a new base image
in the process the copy the images from the 2000 server to the 2003 server.
If you have modified the .osc menu files you will want to copy these too.

We have had zero problems doing this.
