Using ADMT v2

J

Hi All,

Just a quick question;
I have an existing W2K AD forest (abc.com); I want to use
the same NetBios domain name (abc), but with a different
suffix (abc.net). My plan is to setup a new forest
(def.net), use ADMT to migrate all objects (users, groups,
& computers) to the new forest root domain(def.net),
decommission the old forest (abc.com), build a new domain
within the new forest (abc.net) and migrate all objects
from def.net to abc.net.
All my workstations are W2K/XP; my plan is to use Security
Translation (feature of ADMT) to migrate the local
profiles on the workstations. Will this be a problem? My
plan was to do both migrations on the same day; should I
login to each workstation as the user after the first
login? I believe the Security Translation works good with
a single migration, just wondering how it works with a
double migration like I described above.

Thanks for all your help,
j
