Guest Sandy Wood Posted July 16, 2008 Posted July 16, 2008 We'd like to move our Enterprise CA to a new server. Reading through kb article http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx/kb/298138, I noticed it states, in step 5 for Windows 2003: "Rename the old server, or permanently disconnect it from the network." What are the ramification if we don't rename it? Are there hooks into AD that will get into trouble if we don't? -- Sandy Wood Orange County District Attorney

Guest Sandy Wood Posted July 16, 2008 Posted July 16, 2008 RE: Moving our Enterprise CA to a new Server Oh, I see. So the only way to move the Enterprise CA is to another system with the same name? There doesn't appear to be a way to move it to another server with a different name then I guess. Thanks for the info. This will save me a lot of grief! -- Sandy Wood Orange County District Attorney "Masterplan" wrote: > Hi Sandy Wood, > > The answer it's a note from step 6 that says: > Note: The new server must have the same computer name as the old server > > -- > Have a nice day! > > http://winmasterplan.blogspot.com > > > "Sandy Wood" wrote: > > > We'd like to move our Enterprise CA to a new server.
