Merging Domains

[Guest]

My company recently restructured it's IT departments and domain structure. One domain is to remain as is and the other is to be merged with that domain. Is there anyway to accomplish this without typing in the domain info (users and objects) from the old domain to the new domain? Is there some type of merging utility that can perform this? Any help will be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance, Vicky.

The best way is to use ADMT for moving objects from one domain to another.
you can download ADMT from

386-DX,

While using ldifde is a very good way to go, it might be a better idea to
use ADMT - as per Matjaz's suggestion.

HTH,
