Old server dying

Tech-Archive recommends: Speed Up your PC by fixing your registry

I have a Windows NT 4.0 server on a compaq proliant 1600 w/ 261,556 KB
ram. This was our original server which housed our manufacturing /
accounting software and was also the print server. We purchased a
Windows 2000 server on a proliant ml350 w/ 2,227,740 KB ram a few years
ago and installed new manf software on it. They recommended keeping the
old server as a print and file server. I have since moved all printers
and files to the new server and would like to shutdown the old one and
retire it. I tried just shuting it down but got permission error
messages and trouble with the workstations finding the network server.
What do I need to do to make this work, step by step if possible,
before the old system dies completly. What happens if old system dies
before I get this done. Thanks for the help, Brian
