Thanks for answering,
okay will try this way, but somehow it isn't satisfying ... would have
looked for a Software, where you make an independ installation on an
standalone server and than connect from there to the different servers
(exchange, DC, Sql, Terminal Server and so on) , collect all the data you
need on that server and after you have made that Snapshot, export this data
to different fitting new computers. So old LAN will not be touched and the
new one, is really clean and only has the needed data.
So will start with the first Server ...
and will see, how many hurdles I will have to overcome
