I am replacing my server running active directory this
weekend. What should I know before I dive into this
project. We have all of our users logging into this
domain server, people have network shares, and I don't
want any workstations to create new users so I have to
drag outlook settings all to new domain accounts. I want
to name the domain something different also. Any tips?
I'm terrified. IS there a guide anywhere online?????

THANK YOU!!
 
1.- You could not rename a Domain,
2.- You could nor rename a DC either
3.- If you are replacing a DC muy must first join the new PC to the domain,
make it DC, transfer the roles that area running on the old pc to the new
one, then transfer the files, and after that take the old pc off line.

What you will do is a critical operation, be sure to have a BACKUP
