Currently I have one Dell server with Windows 2000\SP4. This is the only
server in the domain, and is the Global catalog AD server. The server
hardware is a little old so we have decided to replace it. Does anyone know
of the easiest way to replace a DC. Here is what I was thinking:
1. Install the new server as a DC in the existing domain.
2. Confirm all user accounts replicated as well as DNS settings.
3. This is where I get lost. What is the next step? I know there is a way to
transfer all GC and AD data and functions to the second server and then be
able to shut the old server down, but I'm not sure of the steps.
Please help. Thanks
