Re: Setting up new server

Tech-Archive recommends: Fix windows errors by optimizing your registry

Unfortunately, ADMT isn't a migration. It's the destruction of the existing
domain and the creation of a new one, no matter how you look at it :-). Too
much stuff busted in the process. I don't have a domain with less than 5
users/computers, and I haven't found a domain too small for a swing
migration yet! Even at 5 users, they deserve a good experience.

Anyhow, each to his own.
