It's not trivial to do, but well documented. You didn't say, but I assume you're domain is a Windows Server 2003 domain. If so, here are some useful links that might help. I used the step by step guide to do a domain rename a couple of years ago, and it worked perfectly.

In the future, please don't multipost - if you need to post to multiple groups, it's best to crosspost instead, by posting a single message to a handful of relevant groups (separate the NG names with commas) so that everyone can follow the thread. Multiposting wastes everyone's time, including yours, and may lead to your actually getting *less* help rather than more. See http://www.blakjak.demon.co.uk/mul_crss.htm
