There's quite a comprehensive document from MS on how to
do this, seems pretty good, goes over the process step by
step. We did a migration from SBS4.5 to SBS2003,
everything went as planned and as per the document,
except when it came to the client computers. We didn't
expect to have to reconfigure the profiles for the client
PC's, spent a lot of time trying to keep the existing
profiles, eventually ran out of time troubleshooting and
re configured all the profiles. Other than that, the doc
helped a lot.
