Re: How to transfer SBS 2003 to new server?



Its a methodology - can do most of the stuff if you spend the time looking
and bodge loads of things whilst trialing. the SBSmigration has amalagamated
all that you need to know/do into an easy to follow document.

Its worth the expense to save you some crucial probs.
