Hello experts,<br />
I'd like to kindly ask for your advice.<br />
I'm going to migratie medium sized network (200 clients) from workgroup environment to Active Directory Domain.<br />
There is not much of any kind of homogenity on the network, but let's say this question is related to Windows XP clients.<br />
What do you consider to be the best practice when migrating so far local user accounts to a domain? To be more specific - the goal here is to migrate the user's documents.<br />
The current plan is to migrate 1-by-1, but I strongly belive there exist a tool or procedure that is able to do this either quickly or massively.<br />
Can you please kick me the right direction?<br />
I have some scripting ideas, but I would prefer some more correct and robust solution.<br />
<br />
TIA<br />
Martin

What is the best practice for migrating local user profiles to domain profiles?

Active Directory (AD) is a Microsoft brand for identity-related capabilities. In the on-premises world, Windows Server AD provides a set of identity capabilities and services, and is hugely popular (88% of Fortune 1000 and 95% of enterprises use AD). This topic includes all things Active Directory including DNS, Group Policy, DFS, troubleshooting, ADFS, and all other topics under the Microsoft AD and identity umbrella.
