Hi,

My goal is to move just a couple of users and computers (not all) from
the root domain to a new sub level domain. Currently we have a sub
level domain called <site>.<company>.local for our company which is
the root <company>.local. I would like to take the users and
computers under root and put them in the new sub domain.

I have one domain controller for the new sub domain
<site>.<company>.local and plan to use ADMT v3 (server 2003) to
migrate all the users and computers out of the root "enterprise"
domain to the new sub domain.

What is the best step-by-step method of doing this? I need the
migrated users and computers to be able access resources locally on
the new subdomain. Currently users access resources ie printers etc on
their site - how can they still access these resources once part of
the new subdomain? Am I also correct in saying that first user, then
local profiles and computers need to be migrated from the root domain
in this specific order?

A quick solution is appreciated.

Thanks,
Taz
