Seahawk,
I was afraid of the accounts going away. I have done a swing migration from
NT4 to 2003 and your step 2 is one of the steps. I was trying to avoid that,
but I guess it's not that hard to do. Probably a lot easier than recreating
the users.
Thanks for the help!

The domain accounts will be gone, as well as all of the other
information pertinent to the domain. Two options would be:
1. Do the DCPROMO, change the server name, recreate the "new" domain
and the user accounts/groups. Specific group/user file permissions
will also have to be recreated.
2. Build a temporary server, run dcpromo to make it another DC in the
domain, move the fsmo roles over, and he will retain your AD
environment while you DCPROMO the original DC back to member server
status to be renamed. You can then DCPROMO it back to domain controller
status, and DCPROMO the temp server back out of the domain after moving
the fsmo roles back.
