help: moving active directory

Hey fellas, I have a dilema at work, I need to move active directory from one Win2K server to another Win2k server which is more powerful. Now, is this possible? if so, how?

not sure what exactly you need to do with various detail of your network/sys but assuming the easiest most obvious

bring 2nd server in as bdc and then promote it to pdc.

Man, I might be missing something, but there are no BDC's in 2000?

Just promote the 2nd server to a DC and AD will be replicated. Then if you want, demote the 1st server to a member server.

you are correct, all DC are peer in AD.

I know it's tough as my work is entirely NT and my house is entirely 2k. Just bustin' chops, but it's all in good fun if we're learning, cool?

Just make sure to transfer the various server roles prior to taking the first server offline.

Right Jeff, don't forget to transfer those server roles (Schema master, RID master, etc.). Also, don't forget about the Global Catalog.
