Moving SharePoint Foundation 2010 databases for Windows SBS 2011 Standard to another server
I have followed the TechNet arcticle "Move all SharePoint Foundation 2010 databases for Windows SBS 2011 Standard to another server". After completion I am getting "Cannot connect to the configuration database" when attempting to connect to Companyweb or SP Administration.
URL of Technet article is here: http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/gg616007.aspx
One part of the move article I did not do and do not understand is "You must change the account names to spfarm(1), spsearch(1), spwebapp(1). To view the names of the accounts that are configured for SharePoint 2010 Administration service, run the Services snap-in on the Destination Server."
My key concerns,
1: There is no SP 2010 Administration service on the "Destination Server" is this a typo?
2 Do they really want me to rename the spfarm accounts? Or just create copies?
Any help will be greatfully recieved.

Sorry not to have jumped in sooner. It is a process with which I am not familiar but when I saw no follow up responses I thought I would provide the little info I had. Glad to hear you have it working.
