Sorry for the delay, Scott. It depends - if you migrate the users with
their old SIDs, i.e. utilize SID History, then you won't have to reset
perms. If you don't, you have the option of using the Security
Translation wizard in ADMT that will go over the existing perms and
replace the old SID with the new SID - again no loss of access. Check
out the topic on Security Translation Wizard in ADMT help for more
information, it slightly changes your approach to migrating your server.
