Re: SBS 2003 TO Regular Servers

The transition pack is designed to take your SBS 2003 to its bigger
siblings.

You can't DCPROMO an SBS back to a standard server.

I have an SBS 2003 DC/Exchange, and want to go to 2 normal 2003 Std
servers. Do I just join the SBS 2003 domain? And then DCPromo up the
Standard server to pull the account information down to new DC?

Can I then run DCPROMO down the SBS 2003?
