New SBS3003 to existing Domain

Hi All

We have an existing AD domain controlled by a single W2K3 server (AD, DNS, Fileserver). we want to replace the existing old server with a new SBS 2K3 server. I have done this a few times with 2 W2K3 servers but never with 1 2K3 standard server and 1 SBS 2K3 server. Is the procedure the same...? Are there some danger holes I need to be aware of..?

Comments and advice are welcomed.

Thanks in advance.
Dave.
