Hello,<br />
<br />
If we are running Windows 2000 server as domain controller, and we want to replace this old box with SBS 2003 running on a new server, can we do so without starting from scratch, eg: pumping in all the user accounts into SBS, new domain name etc?<br />
<br />
Any advice on this topic would be appreciated. &nbsp;I have found many references of people going from sbs 2000 to 2003, but not plan server 2000 to sbs 2003.<br />

Hello,

If we are running Windows 2000 server as domain controller, and we want to replace this old box with SBS 2003 running on a new server, can we do so without starting from scratch, eg: pumping in all the user accounts into SBS, new domain name etc?

Any advice on this topic would be appreciated.  I have found many references of people going from sbs 2000 to 2003, but not plan server 2000 to sbs 2003.



Upgrading from Windows 2000 to SBS 2003 on new server - need to start from scratch?

Small Business Server (SBS) is a line of server operating systems targeted at small businesses by bundling the operating system with a number of other Microsoft products that would normally need to be purchased or licensed separately. The most notable inclusions are Exchange, SQL Server, SharePoint and ISA/TMG (Microsoft's firewall and proxy server).
