Moving a PDC to new hardware
Tech-Archive recommends: Fix windows errors by optimizing your registry
Hi
Haven't done this before so seeking some basic advice
We have a Windows 2000 server as a domain controller in a small network with
about a dozen XP clients
We need to move to a new Windows 2003 server (new physical server) with
minimum disruption to the client PC setups
Question - what is the easiest way of achieving this ?
We would ideally like the new server to have the same name and IP address as
the old one
We have the option of upgrading the Windows 2000 server to 2003 first if
that makes the transition easier
Help !
TIA
Mike
