Users are authenticating to SQL using a local SQL login ID/PWD. We are
retiring the old domain and as far as windows security, there's only one
folder that's shared with the everyone access permission. We are not using
SQL mail as well.

With this info, sounds like I should be okay to simply remove this server
from the old domain to the new domain?

Thanks for your help!
