That is a hard limit. And it's also a realistic one.

I have a server with sbs 2k on it and need to change the domain becauase two comapnies are merging. The total number of users will be 75 once the merge takes place. I also have a spare machine with Windows 2003 server standard and SQL 2000 available.

I was hoping to do a migration from the sbs2k box to sbs2003 R2 on the current Windows 2003 box.

I thought this would be the easiest way to do it instead of formatting the Windows 2003 server and rebuilding the network with Server 2003, SQL 2000 and Exchange manually.

The problem is I am hitting the 75 user limit. Is that a hard limit (only 75 concurrent users allowed) or a suggested limit to the number of users?

If I have to rebuild the server manually are there tools available to migrate the settings from the sbs2k server?

Any suggestions?

Thanks,
Joe
