| Posting this in the hopes that some kind soul will nudge me in the
| right direction.
|
| I've just taken over a network that has a linux-based Samba3 domain
| controller and file server, a separate Exchange 2000 Standard box,
| that is its own DC for another domain, and some workstations still
| joined to an old NT4 domain. No trust relationships to speak of, and
| it's ripe for a complete overhaul. Did I mention the Exchange box is
| also serving DNS and DHCP? There are about 75 users.
|
| I'd like to move from the samba domain to a Windows Server 2003 AD and
| also move the mailboxes hosted on Exchange 2000 Standard to an
| Exchange 2003. The DNS and DHCP services will also need to be moved.
|
| My question: Where to start? I really don't want to have to recreate
| 75 machine accounts and user profiles manually. Can they be converted
| from the Samba domain to 2003?
|
