Moving TS to new domain

[Guest Joe]

I have a small Win2k3 TS server setup as a member of a Win2k3 domain. The

existing domain controller will be decommissioned and a new DC, with a new

domain name, will be installed. What is the best way to handle the migration

of the TS to the new domain? Just removing it from the first domain and

adding it to the new domain seems to simple. I'm worried about user

profiles, etc. Can anyone advise on best practices?

Thanks,

Joe

You'll get all new profiles as it will be all new user accounts. You could

use tools from Quest Software and others that move profiles. As for the

rest, make sure you mov eyour GPO's and make sure your security settings on

the server are correct (like NTFS). And don't forget your license server.
